10 Years of Free2B
From June 2025 to June 2026, we’ll be celebrating our 10th birthday with a year of reflection, celebration and fundraising!
That’s 10 years of creating safe spaces, championing inclusion, and supporting LGBTQ+ young people and their families. We’re incredibly proud of how far we’ve come — but we can’t stop now.
We need your help now more than ever
Right now, LGBTQ+ young people are facing some of the toughest challenges we’ve seen in years. The need for safe, supportive spaces has never been greater — and neither has the need for your support.
Alongside Free2B’s 10th birthday, we’re also celebrating 15 years of GAP Youth Club, which continues to be a lifeline for LGBTQ+ young people in London. It’s a powerful reminder that consistent, long-term support can truly change lives.
Help us Reach Our £10,000 Fundraising Goal
We’re asking for your support to help us raise £10,000 during our birthday year so we can continue our vital work and grow our impact. Whether you join our colourful ’10K for 10K’ Walk in Battersea Park, take on a personal ‘10 for 10’ challenge, or make a donation, you’ll be helping us support LGBTQ+ young people and their families, who need us now more than ever. Click the button below to download our 10th Birthday Fundraising Pack to find out how to get involved.
Design your own ’10 for 10′ fundraiser
Take on your own fundraising challenge inspired by the number 10 — any time throughout our birthday year!
It’s simple: set yourself a creative goal involving the number 10 and raise funds for Free2B. You can do it solo or as part of a team — at home, school, work, or with friends. You could complete a 10-hour sponsored silence, organise a team gym relay, or wear different pride-themed outfits to work for 10 days straight. The possibilities are endless, and we can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Thank you for joining our ’10k for 10k’ fundraiser

A huge thank you to everyone who took part in our 10K for 10K Fundraiser! Together we walked, celebrated and raised vital funds to support LGBTQ+ young people. Thanks to your amazing support, we’ve made a good start towards our £10,000 fundraising target.
After crossing the finish line, we continue the celebrations at Wandsworth Family Pride. You can check out the photos here.
Celebrating our history
