Worcester LGBT, also known as WLGBT, is a UK-based organisation dedicated to empowering and supporting LGBTQ+ individuals nationwide. We place a particular focus on providing vital resources and compassionate support for LGBTQ+ asylum seekers.
We create safe, inclusive spaces where individuals can access tailored services, build meaningful connections, and experience a genuine sense of belonging. Our monthly Asylum Seekers Connection Events at Beckton Community Centre in London, along with gatherings at LGBTQ+ venues across the UK, foster community, solidarity, and support.
Led by our Founder and Chairman, Mazedul Hasan Shakil, and powered by a committed team of volunteers, WLGBT offers advocacy, education, and practical help, such as personalised support letters for asylum claims. Our mission is to ensure every LGBTQ+ person feels welcomed, respected, and valued.
