Fighting With Pride (FWP) support LGBT+ Veterans, serving personnel and their families, particularly those who were affected by the ‘gay ban’, ultimately lifted on 12th January 2000. They aim to bring this community back into the military family and ensure that they and all other LGBT+ Veterans receive a warm welcome wherever they seek help.
They work with Veteran supporting organisations to build capacity for LGBT+ Veteran support, to recognise their service and help resolve the challenges they face in their lives beyond military service. Their specialism lies in the lived experience of the team, enabling them to connect and signpost LGBT+ Veterans to organisations that can help them.
