CEO and Chair Review

This year 1199 people received direct support from us, and we expanded our mental health and wellbeing support provision as a response to increased demand.

Our one-to-one- Support work was funded by grants from NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria, Comic Relief and the Postcode Neighbourhood Trust. This meant we could increase our capacity compared to last year by 43%.

Working in partnership with Public Health Blackburn with Darwen, Lancashire and Blackpool, we launched the Trans and Gender Diverse Health Needs Assessment, the first of its kind in the North-West. This is important as there is very little evidence of the health needs of this section of the population.

We held the sixth Trans Gender Diverse Residential weekend with workshops led by our volunteers with lived experience as well as the Gender Outreach Workers for Leeds Gender Identity Service.

We were also able to increase our provision of counselling with a 79% increase in beneficiaries compared to last year, with more counselling volunteers. We also increased our volunteer group facilitators.

We continued providing an information service, with more people accessing our self-referral form on via our website, where people can contact us in detail about their support needs and with external agencies now able to submit a third-party referral form to us.

Neil Darby, Chair of Trustees

We also continued our work with NHS Workforce Development as part of the NHS Mental Health Transformation programme by delivering our LGBTQ+ mental health awareness training to Mental Health professionals.

Dr Lewis Turner, Chief Executive

Scale of the Issue

There are an estimated 42,195 Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual people aged over 16 living in Lancashire (ONS, 2021). The estimate for Trans and Gender Diverse adults in Lancashire is 5575 (Cumbria and Lancashire Public Health Collaborative, 2025)

Mental Health and Wellbeing: It is well documented that LGBTQ+ people are at a higher risk of experiencing poor physical and mental health compared with the general population. The risk of suicide and self-harm for people who identify as gay or lesbian, bisexual or another sexual orientation (LGB+) is more than twice as high as for their heterosexual peers, (ONS, 2025) Barriers accessing healthcare: LGBTQ+ people also experience barriers to accessing healthcare (fear of discrimination; lack of understanding about health needs), leading to worse outcomes than the general population (NHS England, 2025). As our research with Healthwatch Lancashire (2014, 15 & 16) shows, many LGBTQ+ people in Lancashire experience barriers accessing mainstream services because of a perception that there is a lack of sensitivity to LGBTQ+ identities and some LGBTQ+ people have had previous bad experiences.

Social Isolation: LGBTQ+ people experience disproportionate rates of social isolation due to a variety of factors, including family rejection, discrimination, and the lack of inclusive social networks. LGBTQ+ people aged 55+ are more likely to be living alone, with little connection to their family of origin and are more likely to be single (National Lottery, 2022) Additional support for trans and gender diverse people: The waiting list for trans people with a Gender Identity Service is now up to 7 years from referral to first assessment. The mental health and wellbeing of Trans and Gender Diverse people has been hugely impacted by the negative and polarised environment in the mainstream media and social media, with many feeling intimidated and unsafe outside their homes (Trans Actual, 2025)

Counselling: In the past year, we enhanced our counselling service, by expanding our team of counsellors, and increasing the number of clients supported at any one time. We are proud to report we delivered 156 counselling sessions to 36 clients. That is a 20% increase in sessions delivered and a 79% increase in clients supported from the previous year . These individuals received person-centred emotional and wellbeing support from a trained counsellor with lived experience of being LGBTQ+. 71% of counselling beneficiaries said their mental health and wellbeing had improved

One to one support: A total of 288 one-to-one support sessions were delivered by our support worker to 36 individuals. That is a 43 % increase in sessions delivered and a 5% increase in clients supported from the previous year.

Improving Mental Health and Wellbeing

83% of one-to-one support beneficiaries said their mental health and wellbeing had improved

Mental Health Transformation Project with NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria: Lancashire LGBT was commissioned by NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria to help tackle mental health inequalities experienced by LGBTQ+ people with a grant toward our one-to-one support service.

In this period, Lancashire LGBT were also commissioned to train mental health professionals on delivering LGBTQ+informed mental health support, as part of their NHS Workforce Development programme. 263 people were trained and attendees reported a better understanding of the barriers which LGBTQ+ people may experience when accessing their services.

Reducing the Barriers to Accessing Healthcare

“Potentially the best training I have ever attended. It was really interesting and engaging. I enjoyed the content and pace. I enjoyed being able to ask questions in a safe space” (training delegate)

Those who attended received peer-support facilitated by trained facilitators and volunteer co-facilitators and reported an improvement to emotional wellbeing.

Activity groups: Toward the end of 2024-25, we saw the return of our much beloved walking group, thanks to Blackburn with Darwen Council, who provided in-person walk-leader training to our two new walk leaders. Our long-established swimming group continued. During this period, a total of 12 activity groups sessions were held, with 107 attendances. Those who attended our monthly walking group and our swimming group reported physical and wellbeing benefits.

Trans and Gender Diverse Health Needs Assessment launched: This year, we worked with local Public Health Departments across 3 councils (Blackburn with Darwen, Lancashire and Blackpool) to undertake a much-needed Health Needs Assessment for the local Trans and Gender Diverse population- the only one of its kind conducted in the North-West region. Lancashire LGBT collected local data by creating and launching the health needs assessment survey, which received 130 responses from local trans and gender diverse people. We are now working with Health professionals on delivering on the action plan following the report.

Specific issues for Transand Gender Diverse People

Trans and Gender Diverse Residential

Lancashire LGBT held its sixth Trans and Gender Diverse Residential in Borwick Hall, Carnforth on the 26-27th October 2024

The Trustees of Lancashire LGBT agreed that we should host another trans residential weekend in 2024 – particularly because in the last 5 years we have witnessed a significant increase in hostility towards trans people

It was attended by 18 delegates and facilitated by staff members, volunteers and Gender Outreach Workers. During the residential, delegates attended a series of workshops led by people with lived experience, which covered topics in mental health, wellbeing, gender identity and healthcare

Additional Support for Trans and Gender Diverse People

We have had an important partnership with Leeds and York Partnership Trust since 2017.

This involves their two full-time Gender Outreach Workers who have lived experience, working as part of our team out of our offices in Preston complimenting our support services.

They support local trans and gender diverse people who are either on the waiting list for the Gender Service or who are already on the care pathway.

Jane’s story

‘John’ was living as male but was facing severe struggles with their gender identity, isolation, and mental health. They were under the care of the NHS mental health team and regularly met with a mental health nurse due to suicidal ideation and multiple suicide attempts. At their lowest point, the beneficiary was presenting at A&E up to four times per week due to repeated overdoses and | i expressed a sense of hopelessness.

Over the course of eight in-person, one-to-one support 6 | —— Fa) sessions with Lancashire LGBT, ‘John’ was engaged in open discussions about their identity, mental health, and overall wellbeing. The sessions emphasised fostering self-understanding and self-compassion and ® ' acceptance, helping ‘John’ build a stronger sense of identity. ‘John’ also attended Lancashire LGBT’s trans peer support groups, which provided a safe and inclusive environment to share their struggles and connect with peers.

‘John’ reported improvements in several areas, including mental health and wellbeing, confidence, self-esteem, their ability to manage issues and struggles more effectively, and improved support network. Over the three months following the sessions, | suicide attempts, and A&E visits decreased from up to four times per week to only once in three months. The mental health nurse supporting ‘John’ recognised their limited experience with trans Ay | | patients, so they attended the LGBTQ+ awareness training, delivered by Lancashire LGBT. This training improved the nurse’s understanding of the unique challenges faced by LGBTQ+ people i and equipped them with tools to better support ‘John’, now Jane. Jane decided to pursue gender transition. They were provided with comprehensive information about transitioning gender to help them make an informed choice, by getting support from the Gender ‘ti ig ~~ Outreach Workers for the Leeds Gender Identity Service who are based at Lancashire LGBT’s offices in Preston. They are now on the waiting list for the Leeds and York Gender Identity Service. Jane recently took her first solo holiday since socially transitioning and is learning Spanish to pursue her passion for travel.

“Lancashire LGBT has helped me get back on my feet after a period of severe mental illness. They are always professional, available and supportive. They care passionately about their work for the community.” (support beneficiary)

Report of the Trustees

for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The objects of the Charity are to advocate for and serve the interests of all LGBTQ+ people in Lancashire.

The aim of the Charity is to support lesbian gay bisexual and trans people to be happier healthier and better connected. Short term objectives are to continue to deliver and expand our core support offer; improving service provision externally to be more inclusive through our ‘kite mark’ scheme and training offer as well as building partnerships and creating allies and champions. The long-term objective is to use agreed strategies to secure funding and ensure the sustainability of the charity.

The Trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future objectives.

for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The balance of unrestricted funds as the year end was £42,507 (2021: £64,688).

The Charity has no permanent endowment and has never been in a position to build up significant long-term reserves. The balance of restricted funds carried forward each year is in accordance with funders' expectations and agreed work plans, and covers scheduled expenditure in the short or medium-term future. The balance of unrestricted funds carried forward is to protect the Charity against becoming vulnerable to any short-term funding-gap. This year the Charity achieved the position where there was an unrestricted reserve able to cover six months' operating expenses, in case of need, and for the purpose of generating investment income.

FUTURE PLANS

Future plans include diversifying income sources to support sustainability. Service development remains consistent with evidence of need collated from past activities as well as consultation with LGBTQ+ people in Lancashire.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.

The constitution of the organisation was adopted on 14 October 2009.

The Trustees who have served during the year are set out on page 1. The Charity is dependent on the services of a committed number of unpaid volunteers to act as Trustees and to promote its work. Trustees are recruited as far as practicable to reflect the diversity of the people the organisation seeks to serve. Induction training is provided to all Trustees on appointment and periodically thereafter to familiarise them with the work of the Charity and to ensure that they are able to make a constructive contribution to its strategic management. Honorary officers are elected by the Trustees for tenures determined in accordance with the constitution.

The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and have introduced systems to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen the identified risks.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Lancashire LGBT

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Lancashire LGBT (the Trust) for the year ended 31 March 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
