The Lambeth Allies programme is a simple three-step process designed to work flexibly for organisations of any size.

1) Lambeth Allies Training

Participants are first booked onto the Lambeth Allies training course. This can be delivered in-person or taken in your own time online. The course improves LGBTQ+ literacy and provides practical advice for improving workplace practice.

Whether you're taking the online course or attending in-person training, the course is divided into five parts:

• Identities - sexuality and gender
• Language and inclusiveness
• LGBTQ+ lives and inequalities
• Safety and crisis management
• Action planning

The course provides a broad view of LGBTQ+ experiences and is tailored to create maximum impact in a small amount of time.

2) Sign the Lambeth Allies Code of Conduct

After completing the training participants are asked to sign the Lambeth Allies Code of Conduct. The code is comprised of six simple pledges to the LGBTQ+ community which we participants are asked to integrate into their standard practice.

The six pledges to LGBTQ+ people in Lambeth are as follows. Participants agree to:

1) Respect your sexuality and gender

2) Use your chosen name and pronouns

3) Challenge discrimination and prejudice

4) Celebrate all LGBTQ+ identities

5) Ensure a safe environment for all

6) Report hate crimes to the authorities

3) Receive the Lambeth Allies display pack and get listed

Once steps one and two are complete, participants receive the Lambeth Allies display pack. This features a host of materials you can place in your premises that send a clear message of allyship to LGBTQ+ people.

Larger organisations have the option to order an expanded pack featuring more badges and extra display materials for a small fee.

Participants are also listed on the LGBT HERO website as a Lambeth Ally with their logo and a permalink their website.
