Support LGBT History Month

During February, it is  LGBT History Month and there is an opportunity to celebrate LGBT lives and culture. This year, the poetry of Edwin Morgan is being celebrated.

Schools are being encouraged to become involved in LGBT History Month.  There is a need to promote positive messages about LGBT people and help reduce prejudice and bullying behaviour. LGBT Youth Scotland's research shows that almost 70% of LGBT young people have experienced homophobic, biphobic or transphobic bullying in schools.
