I'm running the London Marathon this year, raising money for LGBTQ+ homelessness charity akt.
akt is the only national charity dedicated to providing support for LGBTQ+ young people who are either at risk of homelessness or currently experiencing it.
Unlike their heterosexual or cisgender counterparts, LGBTQ+ individuals often find themselves homeless precisely because of their identity.
Our mission is clear: to offer essential services that cater to the specific needs of LGBTQ+ youth, ranging from emergency housing advice to finding your community.
No one should have to choose between a safe home and being who they are.
