Every year, over 50,000 LGBTQ+ people, from some of the most deprived areas of the UK, ask for our help.
Thanks to our generous supporters, we’re able to offer help and hope in times of need through our life-saving services.
Whether it’s a one-off payment or a regular donation through a monthly plan – your support guarantees we can be there for LGBTQ+ people in need of support, now and always.

LGBT Foundation stands proudly as the UK’s leading LGBTQ+ health and wellbeing charity. Over the past 50 years, we’ve grown from a grassroots helpline to a national charity.
Today we serve more people annually than any other charity of our kind in the UK, but our mission remains unchanged: to celebrate and empower LGBTQ+ communities so every person can thrive.
Every day, our teams work tirelessly to provide life-saving care to those in need. We need your help to continue providing these essential services for our communities and be here for every single LGBTQ+ person who needs us.
