About Pen Pals
We're a peer support group for queery and/or neurodivergent people based in Kirkcaldy, Fife. We're all about connection, wellbeing and creativity.
Our purpose is to build a strong, dynamic, accessible, intersectional, inclusive, outward-looking and welcoming grassroots community of peers, that centres the needs of LGBTQIA+ people, with a particular focus on neurodivergent, trans and queer members of the local LGBTQIA+ community.
We help build relationships so that we meaningfully improve the mental health, physical health, emotional wellbeing and quality of life of our members on a long-term basis.
We collaborate with local organisations to create a hyper-local network of places where people feel safe, valued and cared for, to nurture a sense of belonging and inclusion for LGBTQIA+ people.
We offer you:
- Regular opportunities to connect in-person in Kirkcaldy, and online
- Workshops, events, activities, signposting and resources
- Opportunities to get involved, volunteer and help run events
- A community of kind creative people and a warm welcome
