Quotes about QYN

It's fantastic to see The Queer Youth Network making a stand where other's have brushed this issue under the carpet. I'm assuming this event is totally run by youth which makes me proud as a mother of a gay daughter and gives me hope that the younger generation know how to fight for their rights. Spread the word and let's support our children!
Angela Brown (Parent)

November 2006

Speaking on the founding of the organisation in 1999 - "It is an important, and positive development"
Peter Tatchell (Human Rights Campaigner)

"Well done to the queer youth campaign in Kent and their fight against it's own mini section 28 - it seems the Kids are alright"
Neil Edwards, editor of Boyz magazine - comments on our campaign to scrap Section 28 in Kent. Boyz Issue 694



"It was with great sadness we learned about the murder of a gay teen in Liverpool last weekend. In the name of Michael Cashman MEP I would like to express our deepest condolences. Mr Cashman would like you to know that he supports all your activities."
Maris Sergejenko - IGLR
Secretariat of the Intergroup on Gay and Lesbian Rights (Office of Michael Cashman MEP)

8th August 2008

"Over the weekend I found an excellent resource for young LGBT people. The Queer Youth Network’s web site is a great resource, there’s also advice and resources about LGBT rights and information on how you can get involved in campaigns - best of all they seem to be genuinely interested in bisexuals"
Editor, Bi The Way 29th September 2008


"Through their countrywide events and campaigns the Queer Youth Network is an extremely active and powerful, political force that is extremely welcoming to new activists."
Chair - London Met LGBT Society


We greatly admire the work of the Queer Youth Network You have established a very powerful organisation. We look forward to collaborating with you to improve the lives of young trans people, especially in the fields of medicine and education. - Bernard Reed
