    I am curious, for those living outside larger city centers suckh as London, Manchester, or Leeds, are there sufficient localized LGBT organizations, community or social groups in your areas to get involved with? Or do you need to participate be heading into a larger city near by?

    My little town has nothing LGBT based, 30 min drive to the cities that do. Although it doesn't affect me as I don't feel the need for that type of outreach, I find it annoying thinking there are no doubt individuals for who that outlet would be very useful.

    That is pretty much the only way of describing the averageness that is the Midlands

    I'm also from the Midlands (West Midlands/Black Country) area and you've pretty much nailed my opinion of it.

    I live in the South east of England, though thankfully not London. It's way to hurried there.
    I have been all over the UK though, apart from the North west coast of Scotland.

    Not in Lincolnshire. There are very small communities within the county if you really go out of your way to find them, but there is very little going on for the LGBT community here overall.

    I love this city so much and I can't believe it's almost been 6 months that I've been here.

    EC may be an American organisation, but historically us Brits have colonised it. :sunglasses:

    (I really hope this post doesn't lead to another independence day). :frowning2: :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    OMG I grew up near Northampton (in Kettering)! The midlands will always be home...no matter how average or middle of the road it is in every way :roflmao:

    Representing Cornwall for now... feels like lgbt people don't exist down here :frowning2:
