She helped found Stonewall in 1989 and was also the Policy Director of the Terrence Higgins Trust, among many other things.On this episode, Liam is joined by Rob Osborne, ITV Wales' National Correspondent and they chat to Lisa about her life and why remembering LGBTQ+ history is so important in shaping our outlook for the future.As Lisa mentioned, you can learn more about the Log Books by listening to the award winning podcast which looks back at LGBTQ+ life in Britain as noted by volunteers at the helpline Switchboard.
