See Me Proud: Lockdown Pen Pals

At this time of isolation, lockdown, and loss of community spaces our See Me Proud champions are keen to increase connections between LGBTQ+ people across Scotland.

Feeling part of a community is more important than ever and so for Mental Health Awareness Week, See Me Proud are bringing back Pen Pals into the modern age.

Your privacy

We will only share the information with your pen pal that you consent to us sharing, for example an email address or home address for emailing or sending letters. You can read our terms of involvement and a consent statement in the sign up form before deciding to agree to our rules of usage.

Feedback

This is a trial project of connecting people in this way and we would really love it if you could join in and let us know about your experience. We hope this works as a good way to stay connected with the community and build new connections that you may not have had before.
