About our cause

Schools OUT founders of LGBT+ History Month

lgbtplushistorymonth.co.uk

 

LGBT+ History Month is for everyone; whether you work in education, a museum, a library or art gallery, a business, a service, are a member of a network/social group or an individual.

 

It is celebrated every February across the UK, and was founded in 2004 by Schools OUT co-chairs, Paul Patrick & Professor Emeritus Sue Sanders. It was first celebrated in February 2005.

 

Every year Schools OUT sets a different theme for LGBT+ History Month and provides free resources for education settings, businesses, services and organisations to help them celebrate and Usualise LGBT+ lives in their full diversity.

LGBT+ History Month 2023: Behind the Lens

 

The LGBT+ History Month 2023 #BehindTheLens celebrates LGBT+ peoples’ contribution to cinema and film from behind the lens. Directors, cinematographers, screen writers, producers, animators, costume designers, special effects, make-up artists, lighting directors, musicians, choreographers and beyond. We are putting the spotlight on people who are so often forgotten.

 

We are also encouraging you this LGBT+ History Month to look ‘Behind the Lens’ and explore the lived experiences of LGBT+ people in their full diversity rather than the stereotypes that we so often see. This is particularly relevant this year as the Trans community has faced an onslaught of attacks in the media and beyond.
