Cruising and Cottaging

 

Even after the reform of the law that came into effect on 1st May 2004, several issues are still arising from this topic.

Men who who were convicted of certain offences that were never applied to heterosexual sex can now apply to have them removed from their records. Find out how.

Cruising Safely booklet

“There is no law specifically prohibiting cruising, and sex in public places is not illegal so long as other people who might be offended cannot see you and are unaware you are having sex…” If you want to know what is and is not legal, read more from Galop’s booklet Cottaging and cruising:  your safety, your rights and the Law.

You may also like to see a beautifully produced booklet, Cruising safely, available here only in pdf format, but full of sense and some information, from Camden Primary Care Trust.
