Wirral LGBT Network Our vision is a thriving, diverse lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans community on the Wirral. A place where LGBT people feel safe and are free from discrimination The Network was set up in September 2012 as a result of an LGBT Needs Assessment carried out by Wirral NHS. It is designed to address the findings from that assessment through assisting the on-going development and formation of various current and future LGBT community networks on the Wirral including: Navajo, Brooks: Work It Out Group, Trans Sisters and Gay Wirral.
