We are the community of LGBTQ+ asylum seekers and refugees in the UK.
Our vision is for a world where LGBTQ+ people can express their sexuality and gender identity safely and with pride. Until this is possible, we believe the UK should provide a place of safety for LGBTQ+ refugees and asylum seekers, providing an environment in which everyone can flourish as their true self.
We engage with our members through one-on-one mentoring, workshops, social events, peer support, and referral to partner organisations for legal, financial, health and housing support.
Say It Loud Club was born in 1994, as an LGBTQ+ rights campaigning group in Uganda. Fast forward 30 years, and we are now one of the largest organisations supporting LGBTQ+ refugees in the UK.
Throughout our journey, one person has been at the centre of everything – an LGBTQ+ refugee himself – Aloysius Ssali.
We are...
Member-led
Community-driven
Collaborative

Donate
Your personal financial donations can make a huge impact to our work and enable us to directly support LGBTQ+ refugees in desperate need.
You can choose to support us with a one-off donation or a regular monthly donation.
Regular donations have a huge benefit for us as they provide a reliable income stream and allow us to long-term plan our services for our members.
Campaign
Refugee rights are under attack in the UK and around the world.
As a community, we have been mobilising our members and speaking out against recent attacks including the Nationality and Borders Bill, and the plans to send refugees to Rwanda.
But we can’t deliver the change we need to see on our own.
We need you to stand and speak out alongside us.
