Who we are
At Sydney Gaymers, we believe and recognise that video games are developing rapidly. In effect, video games are fast becoming as important as traditional media for storytelling, human connections, and the advancement of arts and culture.
Our primary, and most important goal in recognising the above, is to create safe spaces online and offline for LGBTIQ+ people to be included as this genre develops. This inclusivity is formed through safe social spaces, encouraging positive connections with others, and safe online spaces where Gaymers can meet and recognise each other. At Sydney Gaymers, people should flourish, feel welcome, and supported in their growth.
We value the neurodiversity of our community and strive to foster connections between potentially isolated people. Our approach in assisting those that are struggling is holistic; in that we will attempt to refer people to the relevant organisations whilst also ensuring they are in the best position to create their own support structures with others.
