Hull & East Riding Labour LGBT+ Network, a group that campaigns on LGBT issues, have launched a petition to end conversion therapy.

Petitioners are encouraged to sign if they believe that being LGBT is not a disease, disorder or illness and cannot be *‘cured’* or changed, which will hopefully encourage politicians to finally start talking about conversion theerapy and work to bring in regulations to stop it ruining people’s lives.

The group has opted for a paper-based petition, which will have a more visible impact when submitted to Parliament in May by Diana Johnson MP.
