Outrage (Peter Tatchell) - "Peter Tatchell was one of the 30 people who collectively founded the queers rights direct action group, OutRage!, on 10 May 1990. Daring, witty, imaginative and defiant, OutRage!’s style of non-violent civil disobedience has elevated activism into an art form: protest as performance."

Stonewall - "Stonewall was founded in 1989 by a small group of women and men who had been active in the struggle against Section 28 of the Local Government Act. The aim from the outset was to create a professional lobbying group that would prevent such attacks on lesbians, gay men and bisexuals from ever occurring again. Stonewall has subsequently put the case for equality on the mainstream political agenda by winning support within all the main political parties and now has offices in England, Scotland and Wales."

The Pink Triangle Trust - "A charitable trust set up in 1992 to advance the education of the public, and particularly of lesbians and gay men, in the principles and practice of Humanism, and to advance the education of the public, and particularly of Humanists, about all aspects of homosexuality. It may also assist individuals to obtain remedies under the law where they have suffered unlawful discrimination on account of their homosexuality or their Humanism."
