Email“We have been spat at, intimidated and experienced verbal abuse. We are not free to show our love for each other the same way our straight friends are. We should be able to hold hands without fear.”
Did you know that 44% of LGBTQ+ people don’t feel comfortable holding their partner's hand in public?
That’s nearly half of our community living in fear simply for expressing their love. This is unacceptable.
Donate today to Stonewall's Winter Appeal - help us make LGBTQ+ people feel safer by campaigning to make anti-LGBTQ+ hate crime an aggravated offence.
Together, we can make our streets, communities, schools, and workplaces safer. Donate today and be part of the change.
Stonewall on the radio
You might have heard Stonewall’s advert on Gaydio, which features an anonymous account from a LGBTQ+ person living in the UK in 2024. This story is highlighted at the top of the page.
Please consider sharing our text-to-donate service with your nearest and dearest. They can help make the world a safer place for LGBTQ+ people by texting WINTER to 70507 to support our appeal.
