LGBT Foundation

" Where Queer Hope and Joy flourish. "


We’re LGBT Foundation, the UK's leading LGBTQ+ health and wellbeing charity. We celebrate, support and empower LGBTQ+ people, so together we can realise our full potential.

Despite how far we’ve come, LGBTQ+ people still face discrimination, oppression and hate every day. We’re helping people access the support they need without fear, judgment or discrimination.

When you support our cause, you become part of our community, helping connect someone to life-saving support. We have a number of discounted places on events across the UK. To register, simply choose your event from the selection below and complete your application. Your fundraising adventure starts here!

How Your Support Helps

At LGBT Foundation, we believe that all queer people deserve hope and joy and we work to make this a reality. Since 1975 we’ve been fighting for a world where queer liberation creates meaningful change and a fairer society for us all.

Our communities are resilient, strong and beautifully diverse. However, sometimes people need a helping hand along their journey. We offer that help to thousands every year – from one-off helpline calls to sustained support around isolation, recovery, sexual health and domestic abuse.

But we can’t do it alone. LGBTQ+ people continue to face hate, prejudice and discrimination; with divisive attitudes growing and hate crimes on the rise, our work is more vital and urgent than ever.

The money raised through fundraising is essential to continue our life saving and life affirming services. People like you donating, raising funds, and spreading the word about our work can be the difference between someone suffering alone and getting the help they desperately need.
