External Groups
London Friend hosts a variety of external groups, which make use of our premises. As those groups are facilitated by other organisations, it is best double-check timings with them directly:
STONEWALL HOUSING

They provide housing support for LGBT people in their own homes, supported housing for young LGBT people, as well as free, confidential advice for LGBT people of all ages.

THE BEAUMONT SOCIETY
