Our Postal Address

Please remember to tell us the address to which we should send our reply.
FFLAG is a national charity run entirely by volunteers from our homes. We have no office, which is why our postal address is a PO Box.
FFLAG offers information and support through our booklets (downloadable here), a small network of autonomous local parents’ groups (listed here), and by email, telephone and post as described on this page.
FFLAG provides empathy and our own experience as parents in helping with the emotions that can arise when a family member comes out as LGBT or if you need support coming out yourself.
All contact with FFLAG is confidential and any personal information you provide is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
