Stonewall Housing provides the only specialist housing advice, advocacy, mental health and domestic abuse support for lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBT+) people of all ages.

Established in 1983, Stonewall Housing are proud to have supported over 35,000 people secure safe housing.

They have been hosting a variety of LGBT+ themed fundraisers and events to ensure their vital services continue.

Their upcoming Halloween event, TOIL and TROUBLE is hosted at one of London’s queerest cabaret venues, The Royal Vauxhall Tavern.

CEO, Bob Green says:

‘One of my highlights of 2018 was Stonewall Housing’s 35th anniversary celebration at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern, when our friends, families and community helped raise over £4000 for our charity while watching a host of amazing performers that made me laugh and cry. So I can’t wait for this year’s Halloween Party at the same venue for the same cause.’

Fundraising and Initiatives Manager, Cat Haldane says:

‘We’re so thrilled to continue our work with one of our most valued partners, the Royal Vauxhall Tavern. So far they’ve helped us raise an incredible £8,000 that goes directly towards keeping our essential services alive. This time we’re back with an incredible line up of spooky and thrilling acts and can’t wait to show our community and allies what we’ve been up to over the last year. You’ll be in for a trick or treat!’

TOIL AND TROUBLE kicks off on Thursday 24th October at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern. Doors open at 7pm.

Just as the cold chill of autumn sets in, enjoy an evening of deliciously disgusting drag, creepy burlesque and sickening DJ’s to really get you in the spooky mood.
