Today,1st February 2023, marks the start of LGBT+ History Month and is celebrated across the UK.
It was founded in 2004 by Schools OUT co-chairs, Paul Patrick & Professor Emeritus Sue Sanders. It was first celebrated in February 2005.
Every year Schools OUT sets a different theme for LGBT+ History Month and provides free resources for education settings, businesses, services and organisations to help them celebrate and Usualise LGBT+ lives in their full diversity.
The month observes lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender history and draws attention to LGBT+ figures and moments which may have been forgotten.
