Since
foundation support has also been
flooding in from similar groups across Europe, particularly from the
Manchester based Northern Wave group.
Commenting on the groups formation,
Trevor Burchick from Manchester's Northern
Wave Swimming Club said;
"This is fantastic news! Northern Wave wishes
Andrew and his new swimming team every success for the future, and we
stand ready to share ideas and offer any support we can to support
this exciting new club. Let's hope it's the first of many more gay
sports groups across the UK and Ireland. Europride, Eurogames, Gay
Games, let's do them all! I look forward to seeing you all in
Manchester for Europride".
Please find detailed below organisations, groups and
events with whom Slash Out! have been in contact. For details on
social and community groups in Northern Ireland, GLYNI provide an
