This takes place every February and began in 2005.
LGBT History Month focuses on the celebration and recognition of LGBT people and culture; past and present to give educators scope to talk about the bigger picture of LGBT experience, in which LGBT people were the agents of change rather than just victims of prejudice. Most importantly for education providers, resources have been created such as teaching packs and toolkits that cover lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity across the curriculum. This ensures that in every subject every teacher can make a positive difference. Homophobic/transphobic language and bullying, after all, could occur across the school, in any lesson.

The wallchart has been produced by the Forum for Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Equality in Further and Higher Education and a group of trade unions in association with Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans (LGBT) History Month.

The aim has been to produce a resource to support those raising awareness of sexual orientation and gender identity equality and diversity.

Centred on the United Kingdom, it highlights important legal milestones and identifies visible and significant contributions made by individuals, groups and particularly the labour movement.
