Our report

Barriers to LGBTQ+ Career Development in the UK

Last year we conducted a survey of over 1,000 LGBTQ+ people across the country to ask about their careers and what they think might have held them back. This report, the first of its kind, brings their experiences to life.

We've had great coverage, including ReutersNBC and HR Magazine, but really need your help to get the message out to HR departments, senior leaders, and the wider community, so please do share it widely.

“I was told they didn't want poofs working for them”

  • 85% of LGBTQ+ professionals encounter career obstacles due to their identity
  • More than a third of LGBTQ+ adults claim their identity negatively influenced their education
  • 80% of LGBTQ+ professionals state their identity influences where they choose to live
