Description:
GALOP is London's lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBT) anti-violence and abuse charity. We make life safe, just and fair for LGBT people. We give advice and support to people who have experienced biphobia, homophobia, transphobia, sexual violence or domestic abuse. We also support lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer people who have had problems with the police or have questions about the criminal justice system. GALOP is completely a completely independent community group, and we are not connected to the police.
We've been working in London for over 30 years, using our expertise, campaigning and research to challenge the police, prosecutors and others in the criminal justice system to make sure that LGBT people get the service and protection that we deserve. We also work to improve safety for individuals and our community as a whole, ensuring that we can be confident to fully be ourselves, in safety, inside and outside our homes. We're a tiny charity doing a huge job, and every penny that we receive in donations can make a gigantic impact on our ability to make a difference.
