The year 1964 saw the rise of the North Wt Homosexual Law Reform Commtee (later renamed the Campaign for Homosexual Equaly, or CHE), an activist group that eventually brought down the crimalizatn of homosexualy. In 1975, a group of gay men got together and set up the Manchter Lbian & Gay Swchboard Servic (MLGSS), a uncil grant-fund telephone helple for queer and qutng Mancunians.
