OutBritain would like to offer opportunities to LBGT+ young professionals and students to provide access to collaborate and shadow mentors within the industries of their choosing. We would like to connect these individuals with a list of volunteers who will be assisting them and showing them the ropes of specific work environments and trades.
We are delighted to host our monthly OutNetworking virtual events for all members of our LGBT+ owned businesses, along with regular in-person meet ups. Members of our Business Supplier and Business Pro subscriptions have the opportunity to host and promote their own events through our website – offering discounts and free tickets to registered members.
Since joining OutBritain, I've made some great connections within the LGBT+ business community. This has allowed me to reach more potential clients and showcase my services to a wider audience. Matt has been really supportive with getting my name out there!

Joining OutBritain has had such a positive impact on my business: we have got to meet some seriously big potential clients that we would never have met otherwise plus being a part of the membership network has really helped me and my team feel we are part of something that is growing and making a real difference.

OutBritain has been a genuine game changer for Rainbow and Co. Their certification immediately adds credibility and reassurance, giving us the gravitas and reputation that larger organisations look for when choosing suppliers. But the biggest impact has been the introductions. OutBritain has opened doors to corporate conversations that a micro business would rarely get access to, let alone be taken seriously in. They have helped position us in the right rooms, with the right people, and turned “too small” into “exactly what we need.

Joining OutBritain has been genuinely instrumental in the growth of Destination Rainbow and in my own personal journey as an LGBTQ+ founder. Being part of a community that understands the importance of representation has been both grounding and empowering. As an LGBTQ+ owned and run business, it matters to me that the spaces I show up in are aligned with my values, and OutBritain has given me exactly that. It has offered a safe, professional and uplifting network where I feel understood and supported. I have really enjoyed the networking events, the conversations and the opportunities that have come from being a member. The introductions alone have genuinely opened doors that I simply would not have had access to otherwise, and the wider business opportunities have helped strengthen Destination Rainbow in a meaningful way. OutBritain has reminded me that when we stand proudly in who we are, our businesses flourish. I am incredibly grateful to be part of it.
