In 1995, Sir Patrick Stewart was in the ensemble cast of Jeffrey, a movie based on the play by Paul Ruddock.

This was a landmark film - a gay romcom about AIDS, that was poignant, yet brilliantly funny.

Our thoughts are with Sir Patrick’s loved ones.

We’re thrilled to open our new display exploring the history of conversion practices and the ongoing work to get a ban passed through Parliament.

We celebrated with a fantastic private view, bringing together familiar faces and many of those working to push the bill forward.
