BlackOut disrupts stubborn patterns of social marginalisation, exclusion, and precarity by creating a beacon media brand, digital platform and collaboration hub that connects Black Gay/Bi/Trans/Queer men to each other and mobilises them in actions to support voice, authentic visibility, resilience, wealth, philanthropy, entrepreneurship, health/wellbeing and improved life chances.

SUPPORT LEADERSHIP - The BlackOut Collective
The BlackOut Collective offers black Queer men an opportunity to take a leading role in making a real difference to the lives of Black Queer men in the UK. At the same time, enhance their skills, grow networks, collaborate with other Black queer men to create solutions, nurture new friendships, create new commercial partnerships, and gain access to exclusive paid and voluntary work opportunities.
