Over the years the HA has done a lot to explore and raise awareness about LGBT history.  So for this year we thought it was about time that we pulled some of the information together so that you can find out more and, if you wish, present it to others.

LGBT history podcasts 

There are some great podcasts that cover the history of LGBT people, the history of discrimination and the campaigns for equality:
