Summary:

The Gay and Lesbian Organisation of Pretoria (GLO-P) was established in 1993. The organisation was modelled on the basis of the Gay and Lesbian Organisation of the Witwatersrand (GLOW), and was initially called the Gay and Lesbian Organisation of the Witwatersrand - Pretoria (GLOW-P). The organisation started primarily as a social network. In 1994 GLO-P established the Pretoria Gay and Lesbian Resource Centre, and by 1995, GLO-P outlined its scope of activities to include a telephonic counselling and information service; workshops promoting understanding and identity formation; psychotherapeutic/counselling groups; a resource directory; a gay guide/map to Pretoria and a forum for research on gay related issues. In 2001 GLO-P changed its name to OUT LGBTI Well-being.
