About Us
At Crawley LGBT+ we are dedicated improving the lives of LGBT+ people through the events and social groups we run. We are continuously looking to create more safe spaces within Crawley by working with local businesses and organisations, by doing this we aim to raise awareness of and educate on the struggles the community faces. This will raise the identity of Crawley being a more accepting place to live. Our flagship Pride event takes place annually in August to celebrate the amazing diverse community we have here.
Meet The Team
Co-founding CrawleyLGBT CIC has been such a rewarding journey. Now event managing the company, I am overjoyed by its community success. Crawley is a beautifully diverse town, but too often, the LGBT+ community is left without a voice. Creating safe spaces and a sense of belonging in the town where I grew up is a true passion of mine.
Vincent
Director and Company Manager
Growing up when I was at school there was no support for the LGBT+ community, I knew so many people that needed support. I’m so pleased that I can support so many people in so many different ways.
Julie

I joined to be a role model. I'm proud of who I am and want to give others the confidence to be themselves to. I also want to help provide opportunities for the LGBT+ community to get support and be heard. It's time to be the change I want to see in world.

Having moved back to Crawley after finishing university it was so good to see this group forming, and now to be a part of it! I can't wait to celebrate the diversity of our town and create a safe and supportive place for people in the LGBT+ community.

I joined Crawley LGBT to actively promote safety, reassurance, and professional standards within our community’s safe spaces. My goal is to use my experience to help ensure environments where people can feel secure, supported, and free to be themselves, without fear or compromise
