LGBT+ Labour, the Labour Campaign for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Rights, is a socialist society[1] related to the Labour Party in the United Kingdom. Originally called the Gay Labour Group,[2] the purpose of this organisation is to campaign within the Labour Party and wider Labour movement to promote the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) peoples, and to encourage members of the LGBT community to support the Labour Party.

2015 marked the 40th anniversary of the organisation.[2]
