Advocacy and consultancy

Our main objectives are to amplify the voices of LGBT+ people at all levels of sport, to show how authenticity boosts performance, and to demonstrate the benefits of an inclusive environment.

Looking for LGBT+ sports content? Check out our Recommended page!

We’re here to help – whether it’s a one-to-one chat; collaborating on content that helps to raise the profile of your team or club; sharing a powerful personal story that can inspire others, such as a coming out story; partnering on an event; or another opportunity.

We’re also keen to build professional relationships and partnerships across both the wider sports and media industries, and collaborate with individuals and organisations that have similar goals to our own. Check out some of our connections here.

We naturally value the contributions of allies – people who aren’t LGBT+ themselves, but who are supportive of diversity and inclusion initiatives.

We look forward to hearing from you.
