Dedicated to creating a healthier and better connected LGBT+ community in London.
The Gay Men’s Dance Company (GMDC) was founded in September 2015 by Alex Scurr a London based dancer, dance teacher and choreographer. The GMDC offers a creative outlet; a place to express yourself in a safe and supportive environment while keeping fit, socialising and enjoying your chosen hobby.
The company quickly developed into a safe space where people could share their experiences. The Foundation was created in response to evident needs within a community still burdened with external stigma and prejudice. A board of dedicated volunteers has been elected to run the Foundation, and our work supports already established LGBT+ charities.
Our partner organisations are: 56 Dean Street, London Friend, East London Out Project, Opening Doors, Positive East, Wandsworth Oasis, Diversity Role Models and Mind Out.
Issues we are committing to tackle include:
