We're excited to announce that Wolseley has recently partnered with akt - a charity that provides support to young LGBTQIA+ people who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness and living in hostile environments.

Lots of young people come out as LGBTQIA+ to their families and are embraced and supported.

But that’s not always the case. Coming out, or being outed as LGBTQIA+ can lead to young people being made homeless. This is the reality for 77% of the young people akt supports.

Sometimes families are unaccepting and abusive. The locks changed. Possessions destroyed. akt exists to support these young people and can offer safety and hope in an open and accepting environment.

We help with housing and also to help them celebrate their identity.

For our Pride campaign, we are running several events and ask, if you could donate by 7th July, we would be very grateful.

Thank you for your support.
