Lush Cosmetics - Why Conversion Therapy Must Be Banned (UK, 2023)

Content warning: This video contains accounts from survivors of conversion practices in the UK and references to abuse and suicide. Did you know that conversion therapy - which is any practice with the predetermined aim to change, 'cure' or suppress someone's sexual orientation or gender identity - is still legal in the UK?

Together we need to ensure that the government bans conversion therapy, and that the ban covers the whole LBGT+ community, with no loopholes. If you are moved by the stories of Joe, Alex, and Grace in this video, and the thousands of others who have been subjected to conversion practices, please take action by emailing your MP today: https://weare.lush.com/have-a-heart-c...
