Support Services

Signposted Services 

Whoever you are and no matter who you love or how you define, please remember that you are not alone.  At Pride in Surrey we know that at times things can become overwhelming, you can be faced with challenges that seem never ending or it feels like its you against the world. We've all been there, we know exactly how you are feeling.   Don't give up, make the first step and seek support! 


We can help you do that as we have taken the time to include charities, non-profit and official support groups that will benefit the lives of LGBTQ+ people, their allies and the intersectional groups within it.
