We will be at 10 Downing Street today to talk about the LGBT Action Plan, which has been published as a result of the LGBT Survey that was recently completed by 108,100 LGBT+ people between July and October 2017.

In response to the survey, the government has produced a 75-point plan to improve the lives of LGBT+ people.

You can find the result to the LGBT Survey here: www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-lgbt-survey-summary-report

Every February is LGBT history month, which aims to celebrate the lives and achievements of the LGBT community, and also promote tolerance and raise awareness of the prejudices faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.

Are you Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Transgender and considering adopting or fostering? If so, LGBT Adoption & Fostering Week website is a great place to start.

LGBT Adoption & Fostering Week is run by New Family Social, the UK support group for LGBT adopters and foster carers. Each spring, agencies across the UK hold events specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender prospective parents. Read about past events and a wide range of articles and interviews in the "News" section of their website.

February is LGBT History Month - a time when across the country we celebrate and reflect on LGBTQ+ lives throughout history.

LGBT History Month is also an opportunity to celebrate lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer lives and culture, and to recognise the significant contribution LGBTI+ people have made to our country and the world at large.
