While London sparkles with Christmas lights, some LGBTQ+ young people face a harsh reality: no safe place to call home. Twenty-five years ago, after unintentionally outing myself to my parents, I could no longer stay at home. I was lucky—I had my best friend and his family to support me. Today, AKT provides a lifeline for young LGBTQ+ people at risk of, or experiencing, homelessness. This winter, your donation could give someone the support they desperately need.
