We held our first launch & fundraising event at Arch Bar in Clapham, London, on Friday the 22nd of November, 2024. The venue was at capacity and the atmosphere was simply wonderful. We managed to raise £3k towards developing our services and had fantastic feedback from the attendees. 

​

Our founder, Marc Svensson, did a speech about our mission and plans for 2025. Alexis Gregory performed a section of his latest solo play Smoke, which explores being a man, grief, addiction, and survival via a hard-hitting but savagely funny queer perspective. The night also included a panel discussion about the role community initiatives play in supporting and improving gay, bi, and queer mens mental health. Four brilliant and influential panel speakers shared their knowledge and experience: Owain Evans, founder of Big Gay Out, Jaron Soh, co-founder & CEO of Voda, Alvin Hansen, community director of Homoparody, and Alexis Gregory, playwright & performer.
