Coming out, or being outed as LGBTQ+ can lead to young people being made homeless. This is the reality for 77% of the young people akt supports. We proudly offer safe homes and better futures for LGBTQ+ people aged 16-25.

Story

<p>50miles seemed like a good idea at the time....</p> <p>We've entered the ITEX jersey walk - Around the islands 48.1 mile coastline in 24hours - aiming to do it in 14.</p> <p>Sure it won't seem such a good idea at the 3am start time</p> <p>Building on previous crazy challenges of Walking 60miles of the South Downs in 20 hours and 40 miles in the Lake District in 9.</p> <p>This year we're aiming to collect money for AKT a charity that I (Rob) am personally involved in aiming to provide advice and support to 16-25 year old LGBT who are homeless or living in hostile environments. The Charity are now setting up the Uk's first LGBT safe house and have 90% of funding in place. Your donations will help make that project a success. Thank You</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
