Today Galop submitted our response to the Government’s consultation response on equal marriage. We supported the introduction of marriage for same-sex couples, however we strongly argued that religious institutions should not be prevented from holding marriages for same-sex couples where they wish to do so. You can read our full reponse here.
Should I Report?
Hate crime can include verbal or written abuse, harassment and assault. We know all homophobia, biphobia and transphobia is wrong and any information you have could help prevent more. Even if you don’t want to go to the police yourself, we can liaise with them and you can remain anonymous. Read Jonnie’s story ...
I’m being harassed
Regular and sustained harassment can take the form of physical, verbal or written abuse, either in person or behind your back. It can be an exhausting, isolating and scary experience, but we can give you support and advice as well as help you find ways to deal with the harassment. Read Michelle’s story ...
Abuse At Home
Abuse from family, partners, and ex-partners does happen in our communities. Galop is a safe space to talk and think about what you want away from pressure at home. We can help you to explore your options, plan to make you safer, look for safe housing and speak with the police. Read Sol’s story ...
I’m having problems with the police
The police have made huge leaps forward, but things don’t always go the way they should. Galop can help to put problems right with the police. We can give advice and information on your options or make a formal complaint on your behalf if you’re unhappy about something they’ve done. Read Yolanda’s story ...
I have questions about the criminal justice system
Galop can help you if you have questions about criminal convictions or are concerned about Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) checks. We can also support you if you have to go to court as a victim or witness, and we can even make a criminal injuries compensation claim on your behalf. Read Malcolm’s story ...

Galop provides a free confidential, independent service to lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer identified people who have experienced sexual violence, however or whenever it happened.

I’ve Been Arrested Or Cautioned
Being arrested or cautioned can be upsetting and confusing. If it is linked to your identity it can make finding information or assistance harder.
