...is a London-based support group for the parents, families and friends of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people, because...
...no-one comes out alone.
Do you think your child might be lesbian, gay or bisexual? Have they told you?
Do you have a child who doesn't conform to their gender?
Has your child told you that they feel they're in the 'wrong' body and would rather be the opposite sex?
We may not have all the answers, but, between us, we have all been through these experiences. Why not read some of our stories, and those of parents elsewhere.
Who we areOur group and website are run by parent volunteers. We do not hold professional counselling qualifications, but we recognise that many parents have questions or fears which they want to talk about. Talking with other parents who have had similar experiences can be helpful. Our children range in age from early teens to mid-forties.

What we doWe hold monthly meetings for parents, family and friends in two venues in London. Meetings are confidential, and offer a safe place in which to talk.
Our aims
At Families Together London, we aim to support parents and families who may have questions about the gender identity or sexual orientation of their sons or daughters.
We work towards a society that offers fair and equal treatment for lesbian, gay and bisexual people, as well as those with with gender identity issues or who are transgender . We do this by supporting one another, by learning as much as we can and by challenging unfairness and inequality. Contact us
