On 29th April 2026 the Crime and Policing Bill received Royal Assent, changing the law to make anti-LGBTQ+ hate crime an aggravated offence. This change in law brings penalties for anti-LGBTQ+ hate crime in line with offences motivated by race and religion, and will give LGBTQ+ victims and survivors more time to access criminal justice.

Expanding aggravated offences to include all characteristics covered in hate crime legislation was a recommendation first made by the Law Commission in 2021. The commitment was included in the Labour Party’s manifesto in 2024.

This legislative change comes amidst an increase in hate crimes against the LGBTQ+ community in recent years. In the last five years official police-recorded hate crime based on sexual orientation has increased by 20% and those based on trans identity have increased by 50%. Galop also saw a 27% increase in hate crime calls to their National LGBT+ Abuse and Violence Helpline during the last reporting year.

In celebration of LGBTQ+ history month we would like to share a bit of history on Pride and how it originated!

On June 28, 1969, police raided the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar in Greenwich Village, NYC. Fed up with persecution, patrons, led by transgender women of color, drag queens, and le****ns, fought back, initiating days of protests.

In 1970, to mark the one-year anniversary, the first Christopher Street Liberation Day march was held in NYC, with similar marches in Los Angeles and Chicago.

Inspired by Stonewall, the first official UK Gay Pride rally occurred in London on July 1, 1972, organized by the Gay Liberation Front.
