Your donations can make a real difference.

Our dedicated group of volunteers make sure that the phone line is open every day of the year and they do this for free. We rely on the generosity of supporters to help us cover our running costs. On average it costs us £3 to answer a call. 

Just £6 a month can make a real difference and could help us to answer two calls each month. These could include a call from someone who is feeling lonely and anxious about their feelings and want to chat with someone who can tell them they are not alone, or someone who is being bullied about their sexuality and wants some support, or someone who needs sexual health information they can trust. Simply put, you would be helping someone who has no one else to turn to. To make a donation online click here

HOUSE OF COMMONS VOTE FOR SAME-SEX MARRIAGE

The majority of members of Parliament in the House of Commons voted in favour of same-sex marriage on February 5th. 400 voted in favour and 175 against.

There is still a long way to go before the bill can become law. The next stage is for the bill to go to committee before coming back to the House for a third reading. It will then have to go through the House of Lords.

How did your MP vote? you can find out here.

HEALTH WITH PRIDE

A new online resource for lesbian, gay and bisexual patients and the healthcare professionals who serve them has been launched. The website aims to give up to date information on health issues that are relevant as well as advice on things you can do to make yourself healthier. The site also provides links to other resources and information which you might find helpful.

In addition they recognise that there is very limited information out there for trans individuals but they have included some information for trans people as a starting point.

The new website is here.
