Q-topia

Q-topia is a social support network for queer youth (or youth who are
questioning their sexual identity) in the Canterbury region aged 14-25. We
run regular social events and aim to have a lot of fun. We meet weekly, some
of our events include coffee nights, movies, picnics, ten pin bowling,
go-kart racing, watching DVDs or simply hanging out. Q-topia provides a
social support group for queer youth that affirms and appreciates the diverse
qualities of participants. By providing a safe and interesting space for
queer youth to meet others, Q-topia aims to provide an environment where
those who attend the group can safely explore issues and be supported in
having pride in who they are.
