Join LGBT Foundation's Recovery Team for an evening of packing drug testing kits for the community! These kits test for synthetic opioids to reduce harm with substance use. There will be music, pizza and a community to chat to. If you feel like giving a couple hours of support, click here - https://lnkd.in/e2d3PMTV

We’re LGBT Foundation. We are a national health and well-being charity where queer hope and joy flourish 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
About us
We are LGBT Foundation. We believe in a fair and equal society where all lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people can achieve their full potential. Our work started in 1975 and we’ve been changing the lives of LGBT people ever since. Over the last five decades we’ve provided information, services and support for LGBT people who’ve had nowhere else to turn. We’ve been at the forefront of the social and legal changes that mean LGBT people in the UK have more rights than ever before. Our work is as vital and urgent as ever. LGBT people still face persecution, discrimination and stark health inequalities. Through our services we reduce isolation amongst our communities, help people feel more confident and in control of their lives and enable people to flourish. Every year we serve 40,000 people - amplifying people’s voices, providing support and offering hope. We work in partnership with others to build strong, cohesive and influential LGBT communities and promote attitude change in society, reaching 600,00 people online each year. Together, we can secure a safe, healthy and equal future for all LGBT people. Until then, we’re here if you need us.
