The Gaydio Academy

Welcome to The Gaydio Academy, Brighton.

The Gaydio Academy is a new opportunity to get free training and skills workshops in central Brighton facilitated by Gaydio. We're the world's largest LGBT+ radio station, but what you might not know is that we're a not-for-profit organisation whose mission is rooted in improving the lives of the audience we serve. So as well as everything you might expect from any other radio station, Gaydio offers a host of courses and projects that allow you to get involved in making a positive impact on where we live and expand on your own skills and experiences.

Testimonials

Here's what other people who have taken part in our courses had to say...

"It has increased my confidence vastly. I feel I would never have progressed in my day job if it wasn’t for the skills and confidence the Gaydio Academy has given me."
"The Gaydio Academy has allowed me to interact with different members of the LGBT community that I normally wouldn’t. It has also helped me to learn and understand more about that community and make new friends"
"I got involved just as I came out as trans and this helped me feel more connected to the LGBT+ community. Gaydio has a real family feel to it and I feel more confident in being authentic."
