LGBT Liaison Officers (sometimes known as LAGLOs) are a mix of police officers and police staff members who have special understanding and training on lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender issues.

Their role includes enhancing the relationship between the police and lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in an effort to boost people's trust and confidence.

They also work to develop ways in which the constabulary can improve its service delivery for the LGB&T communities and provide advice to their colleagues about crime investigations and to people who identify as LGBT.

LGBT Liaison Officers also visit gay friendly venues frequently to help foster good relations with the community and listen to local concerns.

We will treat any information you give us sensitively and in confidence. There are a number of ways you can contact your local LGB&T Liaison Officer:

• Use the LGBT Liaison Officer contact form
• You can also ask for your local LGBT Liaison Officer when contacting the police using any of the general contact numbers.
