Consortium of Lesbian, Gay Bisexual and Transgendered Voluntary and Community Organisations (The Consortium) operates as a national body.
Different to other national LGBT charities such as Stonewall, the focus of the Consortium is around the development and support of LGBT groups, organisations and projects, rather than actually delivering direct services or campaigning for individual LGBT rights. It champions the value and importance of LGBT specific organisations and groups, as well as the need for their existence.
Lesbian and Gay Foundation provides more direct services and resources to more lesbian, gay and bisexual people than any other charity of its kind in the UK. - This service is based in North England but will be useful wherever you live

LGB Mind-Matters which looks at mental health issues affecting lesbians, gay men bisexuals and trans people(LGBTs). This site was constructed by Maurice Greenham, a gay man living with HIV/AIDS who has had experiences of mental ill health. It was launched in November 2001 as a project of community benefit resulting from a MIND, Millennium, Real Lives Real People award. In July 2005 the Rainbow Forum, Stoke on Trent, made a contribution towards the cost of maintaing the site; a generous act, which is hereby gratefully acknowledged.
London Lesbian & Gay Switchboard (LLGS) provides an information, support and referral service for lesbians, gay men, bisexual people and anyone who needs to consider issues around their sexuality.
Stonewall is renowned for its campaigning and lobbying. Some major successes include helping achieve the equalisation of the age of consent, lifting the ban on lesbians and gay men serving in the military, securing legislation allowing same-sex couples to adopt and the repeal of Section 28. More recently Stonewall has helped secure civil partnerships and ensured the recent Equality Act protected lesbians and gay men in terms of goods and services.
