Celebrating LGBT+ History Month

We’re proud to be celebrating LGBT+ History Month, a month-long annual celebration and remembrance of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender history. It looks back at the history of gay rights and celebrates how far we have come in the fight for equality. The month aims to educate out prejudice and make LGBT+ people visible in all their rich diversity. For allies, it's a chance to better understand the struggles that LGBT+ people face and how to better support them. At South West London and St George’s, we want everyone to feel safe, part of our community and proud to be who they are.
