Resources for LGBTQ+ refugees

LASS can only support people who are already in the UK, and who are claiming asylum because of sexual orientation or gender identity. Unfortunately we cannot help anyone who is currently outside the UK. Our group supports lesbian, queer, bi, queer and trans women, and non-binary folks, who are living in Sheffield or South Yorkshire (Barnsley, Rotherham, Doncaster).

For help and support in other areas of the UK please contact:

Rainbow Migration (national LGBT refugee charity)

Time To Be Out (Yorkshire and North East England)

Stonewall (national LGBTQ+ charity)

Right To Remain (toolkit and advice for all refugees)

City of Sanctuary Sheffield
