OUR AIMS

making sure that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) issues are always on the agenda of the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS);

proving transparency of the police service by advisors having access to most areas of the MPS;

providing advice on LGBT-related issues to the MPS 'on demand';

formulating our own agenda of issues on which to advise the MPS;

assisting with critical incidents;

keeping the LGBT community in London informed of police initiatives;

providing a channel for complaints about poor policing;

encouraging the community to report homophobic and transphobic incidents to the police or through third parties;

supporting, informing and facilitating liaison between local LGBT forums;

creating and sustaining a network of LGBT Liaison Officers throughout the MPS

We are making a real difference to policing in London but there is still much more work to be done.
