About

ONE Centre

The ONE Centre is a welcoming LGBTQ+ community space where people can connect, feel supported, and be fully themselves. It’s a place to spend time with others, build confidence, and feel part of a community that understands and celebrates who you are.

The ONE Centre is rooted in community.


It brings LGBTQ+ people together across ages and experiences, creates opportunities to be seen and heard, and helps people feel visible, valued, and connected.


Built on care, pride, and belonging, it’s a space where everyone is welcome.

How the ONE Centre was Shaped by Community


The ONE Centre was shaped by our community.


Following a wide-ranging consultation with LGBTQ+ people across the region, we listened carefully to what people told us they wanted - and what they didn’t.

People asked for a space where they could thrive and grow.


A safe, warm and welcoming environment to find friendship, build community, and access support.

A place where young and older LGBTQ+ people could come together, share ideas, learn from one another, and build meaningful connections across generations.

Just as importantly, people were clear about what they did not want. They didn’t want rivalry, gatekeeping, or exclusion.
They wanted a space rooted in respect, belonging and unity - somewhere everyone could feel comfortable and valued.


The ONE Centre is our response to that call.
