Terms and conditions

Welcome to Oneself, a website designed for LGBTQ+ young people. It was co-developed with LGBTQ+ young people and a team led by researchers at The Open University. Please note, this website is currently a prototype resource, and it is not for general use. At present it is only to be used as part of a study (called the PRIDE Project). Any personal data collected (e.g., your email address) will not be shared with any third parties.

Oneself has been designed with accessibility in mind, for example we have been mindful of the needs of those with dyslexia and colour blindness when creating this website.

If you are a young person requiring help, you can phone The Mix Freephone on 0808 08 4994 or Switchboard (LGBT+ Helpline) 0300 330 0630 or YoungMinds Crisis Messenger: text YM to 85258 or talk to your youth worker.

The content on our website, including text, graphics, logos, images, and software, is the intellectual property of The Open University and/or our content providers. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from our content without our written permission.
