This website

This site is under construction at present. We'd be very interested to get your feedback on the site.

Meanwhile we've inherited some resources from Polari (closed 2009), including documents, a bibliography, and a list (still being added to) of Polari logolinks to other sites featuring older LGBT people.

We need you!

A small group of us (see Who's who) have got together to set up Age of Diversity, campaigning for and by older gay, lesbian, and trans people.

If you're an older LGBT person, and would like to take a hand in moving the project forwards, please Contact Us.
