Reverend Richard Coles presents a short film for BBC Morning Live about conversion therapy (2021)

With conversion therapy on its way to being banned across the UK, Reverend Richard Coles presents a heartbreaking insight into the lasting effects of the practice. The controversial method attempts to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity using psychological, physical, or spiritual interventions. Reverend Coles, who was formerly a member of the 1980s pop group The Communards, made the film for BBC One’s Morning Live in which he speaks about the Government’s promise to end a practice that has caused untold misery to members of the LBGTQ community.
