Get ready for a heart-stirring journey as we welcome you back to a brand-new season of Coming Out Stories. After a (rather long) pause, we're returning with a line-up of extraordinary stories that transcend across the LGBTQ+ spectrum, painting a picture of resilience, hope, and love.

Be captivated by the story of a brave gay priest standing against all odds, including his own father, to fight for LGBT rights in Nigeria.

Meet Juno Roche, a transgender woman whose life journey is as awe-inspiring as the script of a Hollywood blockbuster. 

Join us on the emotional rollercoaster as we share the experiences of Verity, a trans man and rugby player, and Luma, a Syrian lesbian. 
Verity's life took a dramatic turn, leading him from the rugby field to a wheelchair. He now works tirelessly with the trans charity Mermaids, striving to challenge the detrimental atmosphere surrounding trans community in sports and beyond. 

Luma's story showcases her resilience and determination as she sought asylum in the US due to her sexuality, finding a new community in an alien land. Each story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit, filled with threads of love, hope, and positivity. 

Don't forget to check out our book, Coming Out Stories, which now also comes in a Welsh edition. We're excited to bring you an unforgettable season of inspiring stories!
