Making banking inclusive - our history of championing LGBT+ rights
Barclays' has a strong track record in supporting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT+) colleagues and customers.
Whether it’s being the first bank to promote a transgender woman to the position of branch manager or the first bank to feature LGBT+ couples in our advertising, we have a strong history of championing LGBT+ rights and being a market leader in this space.
We have also supported marriage equality bills in both the UK and US, and have sponsored Pride celebrations across the world. This includes having sponsored Pride in London since 2014 and supporting many other regional events.
Our personalised debit card function allows customers to add a range of rainbow, bisexual and trans flag filters and overlays to their debit cards – to add a little more Pride into their everyday payments.
Our current account, debit card and savings customers are able to select an ‘MX’ title on their registered account details.
