We've had a request from a researcher at UWE regarding a survey she's completing for her MA:


Participants aged 16+ and LGBTQ+ identified wanted for an online anonymous survey exploring the role of music in LGBTQ+ identities - tell us about your favourite coming out songs and the role music plays in your identity!

Hi, my name is Karen, and I am a MA Music Therapy student at UWE Bristol, seeking participants for my dissertation 'Exploring the role of music in LGBTQ+ identity'.

I am intending to create a Spotify playlist from the songs named in the research to create a LGBTQ+ coming out and community playlist that can be accessed at the end of the study.

If anyone is interested in taking part in the survey, please click on this link: https://uwe.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2oE5mhu7pMgSxaS
