SUMMARY:Queer Platonic Coparenting Meetup: Games and Craft Session
DESCRIPTION:For Queer Platonic Coparenting’s June meetup\, we’re joined by Hanna Andersen\, a researcher from Cardiff University (and part of the Cardiff QPCP Group). Hanna will be running a games and craft session as a way to talk about and explore queer experiences of family and important relationships. \nWe’ll play the card game ‘Happy Families’ together and discuss what it tells us about ‘families’. We will then create our own sets of cards using arts and crafts materials to depict our significant relationships. These can be as abstract as you like\, no artistic ability required – promise! \nAnyone who is 18+\, identifies as LGBTQ+\, lives in England/Scotland/Wales\, and has considered parenting beyond a romantic couple within the past 15 years (this could be as a platonic coparent\, or as a single parent or multiparent family including one or more romantic relationships). \nHow will this be used in research? \nHanna is researching how social policies effect LGBTQ+ families in Britain\, in particular those parenting beyond the romantic couple. She is interested in the ways that queer people define and understand family\, and how this may differ to policy definitions. \nThe group discussion will be recorded. During the craft session\, Hanna will ask you some questions about who the important people are in your life\, and your own definitions of those relationships. These conversations will also be recorded. A photograph will be taken of the cards that you create. \nWhen you sign up\, a full information sheet will be sent to you which also outlines in more detail how your data will be used. You will be able to withdraw at any time before\, during\, and up to two weeks after the session. You can also find out more about the project here. \nAccessibility at the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre \nThe Centre’s accessibility statement is here. \nCovid safety at the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre \nTo keep our community safe\, we ask that all visitors do not visit the centre if they are feeling any Covid-19 symptoms including a headache\, fever\, sore throat\, consistent cough or chills. \nYou can wear a mask if you feel more comfortable.
