Who we are

 

Opening Doors London (ODL) is the largest UK charity providing activities, events, information and support services specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, non-binary or gender fluid (LGBTQ+) people over 50.

We are a membership organisation providing regular social opportunities and events to help develop networks, communities and create friendships for LGBTQ+ people, aged over 50.

We offer a range of specialist groups or services for members.

We also offer specialist training for statutory and voluntary organisations, such as care homes, housing associations and hospitals, to help them understand the needs of older LGBTQ+ people.

Membership is FREE and open to anyone who:

  • Is over 50
  • Identifies as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, non-binary, gender-fluid

Members receive a monthly newsletter packed with information and listings for activities and events to help build support, social inclusion and be part of LGBTQ+ life. Your information will never be given to anyone else.

Opening Doors London is here to support LGBTQ+ people over 50 to live full, vibrant and respected lives free from isolation, loneliness, discrimination and prejudice.

ODL is here to let LGBTQ+ people over 50 know they are not alone.
