REDBRIDGE RAINBOW COMMUNITY

Redbridge Rainbow Community supports LGBT people who live, work, study or socialise in our borough. We arrange meet-ups for friendship and support. Provide training for local organisations on LGBT issues. We work with the local council, allies and partners so we can ensure Redbridge meets the needs of our diverse community.
