Outhouse East
We're here to offer support and information to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people of Essex. Based in Colchester town centre, we provide a range of services and groups free of charge.
Whatever's going on for you, from counselling to health advice, from homophobia and transphobia reporting information to legal advice, from housing to employment, we may have the thing you need to make life a little better. We also offer social and support groups for women, men and young people.

Funding and fundraising • Governance and strategic planning • Marketing and communications • Legal • Human resources/supervision/appraisal skills • LGBT social and health issues • Health & social care policy
We hold friendly yet purposeful monthly Board meetings, and all Trustees are encouraged to take an active role in life at the Outhouse (our building in Colchester), whether by volunteering or just dropping by when they can!
