We are akt, our mission is to ensure that every LGBTQ+ year old facing homelessness or a hostile living environment has a safe place to live.
We give LGBTQ+ year olds at risk of, or experiencing homelessness support they require to thrive. We have four offices located in London, Bristol, Manchester and Newcastle, as adv as live chat to suggest support across the UK.
