The Gay Outdoor Club is an activity & social club for everyone in the LGBTQ+ community across Great Britain.

To many of their members, GOC is more than just a walking group – they have found enduring friendships and the opportunity to get out and do events that they otherwise wouldn’t have had the chance to.

GOC consists of about 40 groups, which are either geographically based or specialise in a type of activity (e.g. climbing), and all events are organised through one of those groups. GOC groups are run by one or more coordinators who schedule their events, are available to answer questions about their group and welcome new people.
