Bingley offers the best of both worlds – close to the city of Bradford yet on the doorstep of beautiful countryside and rural communities. Our hub here is a welcoming base where members can enjoy good company, find support, and feel part of a community that reaches across town and country.

Whether you’re popping in for a chat, joining a group, getting help with something digital or coming along to an event, the Bingley hub aims to feel relaxed, welcoming and friendly from the moment you arrive.

What happens at the Bingley hub

There’s always something going on at the Bingley hub. Regular activities are designed to be informal, supportive and enjoyable, and include:

• Social and peer support groups focused on connection and shared experience
• Digital inclusion sessions with practical, hands-on support
• Wellbeing activities that support confidence, creativity and mental wellbeing
• Community-led sessions shaped by the interests of people who attend

Many people come for one thing and end up staying for the conversation.

Events at the Bingley hub

Alongside regular sessions, the Bingley hub hosts a programme of events throughout the year. These might include:

• Our coffee and cake morning, every first Tuesday
• Social evenings and themed meet-ups
• Our infamous sunday lunches
• Workshops and taster sessions
• Seasonal celebrations and community events

Events are a great way to meet new people and try something different in a low-pressure environment.

Who the Bingley hub is for

The Bingley hub is open to LGBT+ adults who want to connect with others, build confidence or access support in a safe and inclusive space.

Some sessions may be aimed at specific groups, but everyone is welcome to explore what’s on offer and find what feels right for them.

Getting involved at the Bingley hub

There are lots of ways to get involved locally. You might attend sessions, volunteer your time, help run activities, become a digital champion or support events and fundraising.

We also work closely with local partners who refer people to the hub for additional support.
