Yes — all our services are completely free. Red & Gold exists to serve the community, not to profit from it. We do accept pay-what-you-can donations, with zero pressure — we understand that not everyone is in a position to give.

If you are, your contribution helps us grow and move from working as unpaid volunteers toward building a sustainable income to continue running and expanding the support we offer. Either way, we’re here for you.

Absolutely. Nothing you share here is linked to your identity. Conversations are anonymised and never used to target, track, or advertise. You remain in control of what you choose to share.

We currently host in-person support groups in London, Paris, and Berlin, with plans to expand as resources allow. To find the latest groups near you, click the ‘In-person’ link in the main menu.

We know schedules vary — especially across jobs, family, and care responsibilities. We try to offer sessions at different times of day, so there’s always something you can join. Check the ‘In-person’ section for the most up-to-date list.

Yes. Our online groups are issue-specific, sometimes offered in multiple languages, and capped at 15 participants per session. Places are available on a first-come, first-served basis. When we see growing demand, we add more sessions to meet it. Click ‘Online’ in the menu to see what’s available now.

Yes. We welcome new voices. If you have lived experience or professional insight you'd like to share, fill out the expert submission form. We review each proposal carefully. Because each series takes time and care to produce, we’re only able to launch a limited number each year — but we’re working hard to grow our capacity.
