In June 2008, six people gathered at the first Open Table service with a vision to start a regular communion service for the LGBTQIA+ community, family and friends. 18 years later, the Liverpool community has grown and is still going strong, and 36 other communities now meet across England and Wales, hosting hundreds more each month, and reaching thousands online, with more to come.

There is much to celebrate and much to look forward to!
