Your gift can save a LGBTQ+ young person’s life.

The UK still isn’t safe for LGBTQ+ youth. Even now, many are being made homeless simply for being who they are.

akt is the only national charity specialising in LGBTQ+ youth homelessness.

Our expert team of caseworkers help young people out of crisis, and into safe accommodation, education, training, healthcare and more.

Donate £100 today to give an LGBTQ+ young person a brighter future*

Many of the young people we work with are rejected from mainstream services before coming to akt for help.

One in four also face violence and abuse at home.

No one should have to choose between a safe home and being who they are. Please donate today.
