Broken Rainbow LGBT Domestic Violence (UK) was started in 2002 and became a registered charity in 2004.

Our objective is to relieve the distress and suffering caused to lesbians, gay men, bisexual and transgender (hereinafter called “LGBT”) people by domestic violence and abuse, in particular but not exclusively by doing the following: Raising awareness in the LGBT community and elsewhere of the impact of homophobic, transphobic and same sex domestic violence on the lives of LGBT people

Offering advice, support and referral services to LGBT people experiencing homophobic, transphobic and same sex domestic violence

Offering information, advice and training to people who are responsible for domestic violence policy and practice in mainstream and specialist organisations, or who are otherwise involved with the survivors and perpetrators of those suffering from domestic violence, with a view to increasing the physical safety and mental well-being of LGBT people who experience such violence or abuse.

 

We run our modular training project in partnership with Refuge and Leeway Women's Aid.
