LGBTQ+ History Month takes place in February every year and is an annual commemoration of the history, achievements and contributions of LGBTQ+ people in the UK.

LGBTQ+ month highlights important legal milestones and identifies visible and significant contributions made by individuals and groups. You can find out more on the LGBTQ+ History Month website.

The aims of LGBTQ+ History Month are to:

  • support those raising awareness of sexual orientation and gender identity equality and diversity
  • promote knowledge and understanding of history and culture, both nationally and in Bristol, of the LGBTQ+ community 
  • acknowledge and celebrate the contributions made by LGBTQ+ people to the cultural and economic development of the UK
