Centred (formerly Kairos in Soho)
Centred is a community organisation run by diverse lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer (LGBTQ) people.
Their mission is to bring about equality, respect and understanding in society particularly in relation to sexuality and gender. Whilst our primary charitable objectives concern sexuality and gender, our working concern is equality for all. We recognise the importance of the intersectional nature of identity.
Our main activities include: publishing, community events, networking, volunteering, LGBTQ history and heritage activities, and community infrastructure. Our work focuses on diverse LGBTQ experiences, especially where these intersect with experiences concerning race, gender, disability, deafness, age and minority faith. We work closely with friends, family and allies who also wish to achieve equality for all.
Please get in touch to see how we can help.
We are really flexible and can work around you. We can come and meet you, or you can drop in and see us. If you’d rather speak to us over the phone, or send us an email or text – that’s fine too.
