We are pleased to announce that LSMP has been awarded a Gold Pride In Practice Award in recognition of our work supporting the LGBTQIA+ community.

At Leeds Student Medical Practice we strive to provide a supportive and safe environment for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBTQIA+) students. We believe in fairness, equality, and above all value diversity.

While most health issues affecting LGBTQIA+ individuals are similar to those of the general population, we know that LGBTQIA+ people have unique health needs and experience disparities in care.

Below are some key resources that we feel may be of use, but we are happy for you to discuss any concerns with one of our clinical team.

LGBT Foundation is a national charity delivering advice, support and information services to lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBTQIA+) communities. For more information please click here.
