Voices From The Sperrins - Voices from the rural LGBTQ community

Paddy Glasgow chats to Michael Thayaparan and Charlene Hegarty to discuss their experiences of identifying as gay in a rural community.
They talk about their journeys through childhood, school, university, sharing the challenges they faced while coming to terms with their identities.
They also talk about homosexuality throughout history, gay marriage, parenthood, adoption, how the laws have changed in Northern Ireland & the different support groups that are available to LBGTQ people here.
