Ban Conversion Therapy

Conversion therapy isn't therapy. It's abuse.

LGBTQ+ people have nothing to be ashamed of and there is nothing wrong or broken about who we are. Our sexual orientations and gender identities are diverse and should be celebrated.

Yet conversion practices are still legal in the UK today.

In July 2024, the UK Government announced its new commitment to publishing a draft Bill to ban conversion therapy. We'll be campaigning to ensure the ban is fully inclusive, protects all LGBTQ+ people, and has no loopholes that would allow abuse to continue. Find out more about the campaign below.
