EACH

For more than forty years, EACH and I, as its Director, have supported LGBT+ adults and young people across the UK. Our work has helped educational institutions, health providers, local and national government plus the Criminal Justice System understand and meet their legal responsibilities with clarity and confidence.

What we deliver

• Criminal Justice System training: Supporting police, probation and court professionals to meet their duties when working with LGBT+ targets of crime, witnesses and offenders — including men affected by male rape or sexual assault.
• Health and Social Care consultancy: Helping services meet statutory obligations and deliver safe, lawful and respectful care.
• Education sector training: Equipping staff to recognise, stop and prevent homophobic and transphobic bullying or harassment and support LGBT+ young people and staff.
• Policy development and review: Ensuring organisational frameworks are legally robust, defensible and fit for purpose.

Current and international work

Our training and consultancy expertise continues to be sought at the highest levels. Recent and upcoming training or consultancy includes: 

• Independent Schools Association – “Working with LGBT+ Young People in Schools” CPD one-day webinar
• Boarding Schools Association – “Bystanders in Bullying” CPD webinar 
• Churchill Academy & Sixth Form – Awareness‑raising assemblies with Years 12 and 13.
• Welsh Government‘s statutory anti‑bullying guidance, Rights, Respect, Equality — content I originally co‑created for its 2020 publication I am contributing to its rewrite for 2026 release.
• Department for Education – engaging in ongoing consultation with the Government concerning the upcoming publication of its statutory guidance for schools: “Gender Questioning Children” scheduled for release September 2026.

Our international training and consultancy delivered in Finland, Sweden and the USA now extends through Michigan University’s commission to write the chapter on Wales for Bullying: Global Case Studies in Policy and Prevention for Young People covering 110 countries and territories – published by Edward Edgar in April.

EACH looks forward to attending the Independent Schools Association’s national three‑day conference in Bristol — a welcome opportunity to extend our work with the ISA: meeting leaders across the sector to strengthen their understanding of LGBT+ matters and meet statutory responsibilities.

Built on a legacy of nationally recognised excellence — and strengthened by a network of specialist associates — we provide consultancy, training and resources trusted by organisations determined to get equality, safeguarding and compliance correct.

Supported over many years by Government departments, the National Lottery, Comic Relief, the Diana Award, Quartet Community Foundation, independent organisations and individual donors EACH shapes national policy, improves professional practice and ensures LGBT+ people receive the protection they are entitled to under the law.

Our work has been recognised with multiple national awards for impact, innovation and commitment to wellbeing. A particular point of historic pride remains our national freephone helpline: a vital support to young people experiencing homophobic or transphobic bullying. 

In 2025, my contribution to Education, Health, the Criminal Justice System and His Majesty’s Government was recognised with the award of MBE in the King’s New Year Honours.

Working with you

EACH is keen to work with your institution or organisation — in the UK or internationally. We bring clarity, authority and proven expertise to every aspect of sexual orientation and gender identity awareness: ensuring your policies and practice meet legal requirements which serve the people who rely on you.

Helping you understand the law — and practise it with confidence.
