The first meeting of the GLF UK branch was held in an LSE classroom in 1970. The 50th anniversary event featuring GLF members was broadcast live on 13 October 2020. It looked back at the movement’s early history and the lessons for us today. Watch it here:

On #BiVisibilityDay we celebrate the wonderfully broad spectrum of bisexuality, reflect on the ways bisexual people are discriminated against, & share how happy we are to have you in the community!

On September 25th, 2018, we launched the BBC's LGBT Sport Podcast.
If we're honest, we thought we'd only last a few months.
But we kept finding amazing stories to tell - and today, as we publish our second anniversary episode, we'd thought we'd share some highlights.

We’re not confused if you find bisexuality confusing! We know who we are - and we’re just attracted to more than one gender! Happy BiVisibilityDay!
