We're here to let all lesbian, gay, bi and trans people, here and abroad, know they're not alone. We believe we're stronger united, so we partner with organisations that help us create real change for the better. We have laid deep foundations across Britain - in some of our greatest institutions - so our communities can continue to find ways to flourish, and individuals can reach their full potential. We’re here to support those who can’t yet be themselves. But our work is not finished yet. Not until everyone feels free to be who they are, wherever they are.

SESAW rescues, cares for and, whenever possible, re-homes any animal in need. Those that cannot be re-homed due to age or health problems, live out their natural lives at the Sanctuary or in foster homes. Wild animals are returned to the area where they were found or to a similar habitat if that is not possible. Responsible ownership is promoted including the often neglected issue of neutering. The Charity is sometimes called upon to work with housing associations, social services and other community based organisations.
