The Equality Network has launched a major consultation on the future priorities for LGBT people in Scotland.

The “Time for Change” consultation will be the biggest survey of LGBT people to date with thousands expected to take part.

Its results will be used to inform the Scottish Government and public bodies of the issues that matter to LGBT people, so that they can prioritise their work in tackling prejudice, discrimination and disadvantage.

The Equality Network will also use the results of the Time for Change consultation to set its priorities for the next few years.

Earlier this month, the charity won an award for its equal marriage campaign from Scotland’s Herald newspaper.

The Equality Network are also holding a series of 19 consultation events that are taking place in communities across every region of Scotland from Dumfries to Shetland, the Scottish Borders to the Western Isles.
