WHAT IS

TIME TO BE OUT?

TIME TO BE OUT IS A CHARITABLE INCORPORATED ORGANISATION (CHARITY NUMBER 1183884) THAT SUPPORTS LGBT+ ASYLUM SEEKERS AND REFUGEES.

Its charitable purpose is registered as follows:

Time to be Out supports people who are refugees and asylum seekers who identify as LGBT. It relieves the needs of those people and assists them to integrate into society, particularly but not exclusively by:

• providing workshops, advocacy and general support
• increasing and co-ordinating opportunities for them to engage with local communities
• raising public awareness about their situation.

TIME TO BE OUT’S MISSION STATEMENT:

“We are working for a world where people do not need to flee from their own country because they are at risk of attack on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity. However, for as long as LGBT+ people do need to seek asylum and refuge in the UK, Time to be Out aims to support them and be advocates on their behalf.”
