Thank you very much - we really appreciate you! .
A year or so ago we set up a small not-for-profit organisation called The Lesbian Project. It is focused upon getting better evidence and research about lesbian lives, lobbying for lesbian interests with policy-makers, and helping rebuild lesbian community. (Please do follow the link to read about us, and if you would like to get on our separate database, please sign up at the bottom of this page).
Though we are still very small, so far we have:
organised a very successful, sold-out public event in London talking about lesbian lives;
met behind-the-scenes with several key politicians and policy-makers to discuss how the interests of lesbians are being neglected in the modern LGBTQ+ landscape;
given interviews about lesbian interests to major UK media outlets, including the Telegraph, BBC Womans Hour, and the Andrew Marr show.
written opinion pieces about lesbian life for newspapers and magazines, including the Spectator, the Observer, and UnHerd.
produced a major report about lesbian erasure in the UK.
All proceeds from our podcast go to our organisation: without your subscriptions, we could not do what we do, and we are very grateful.
We know our podcast is light-hearted and irreverent but we are deadly serious about building a better world for lesbians. We thank all of you that can afford to help us do this important work. (And if you are not already a paid subscriber, enjoy our podcast, and think you might be able to help, we would love to have you onboard!)
Warm wishes

A massive thank you for all the work you are doing! It feels great to be part of the lesbian community here in the UK.
Keep doing what you’re doing. ❤️ from OZ :)
