Fighting With Pride - LGBTQ+ Military Charity

Fighting With Pride supports the health and wellbeing of LGBTQ+ Veterans, service personnel and their families – in particular those most impacted by the ban on LGBTQ+ personnel serving in the Armed Forces prior to January 2000. We are proud of the achievements of our serving LGBT+ personnel. They serve in every part of the Armed Forces and are supported at every level of command. In stark contrast, and despite the passing of over 20 years since the ‘gay ban’ was finally lifted, no attempt has been made to support the recovery of the thousands of LGBTQ+ service personnel dismissed or forced from service prior to 2000. We want to connect service charities and organisations to those LGBTQ+ veterans who have been left behind to support recovery across the LGBT+ veteran community. As a new charity, FWP is working hard to build our service to connect LGBTQ+ Veterans to organisations that can help them and stand with those in need. We will do everything we can to provide useful information and signpost ways to get help. We are working with a wide range of organisations to make sure that our LGBTQ+ Veterans, serving personnel and their families receive a warm welcome wherever they seek help. Our specialism lies in the ‘lived experience’ of our team. FWP is here to listen, understand and support. Please contact us and let us know how we can help
