Who We Are

We are Belong To, the national LGBTQ+ youth organisation.

Since 2003, Belong To has grown from a youth project into a unique national services and advocacy organisation with and for LGBTQ+ children and young people. Youth services, which inform our research, education work and a development approach, enable us to provide solution-based advocacy at an institutional and public level.

We are rooted in and driven by our direct work with LGBTQ+ young people aged 14-23 and we exist to:

  • Create and generate safe spaces and places for LGBTQ+ young people.
  • Empower others through education to support LGBTQ+ young people.
  • Lead policy and practice by providing expertise, developing best practice models and reflecting lived experiences.
  • Ensure LGBTQ+ young people have the opportunity to have their voices heard.
  • Be an advocate for LGBTQ+ young people and champion change.
