LGBT group the Rainbow Project has organised a protest at a south Belfast church on Saturday morning against what they have labelled “conversion therapy”. Windsor Baptist has advertised the event as a True Freedom Trust Conference, however, Rainbow Project director John O’Doherty, said: “We will always stand against conversion therapy in whatever guise it presents itself”. Mr O’Doherty said: “Conversion therapy, reparative therapy and all other so-called sexual orientation change efforts are rightly condemned by reputable mental health, counselling and psychotherapy bodies around the world as unethical and harmful to the people who are subjected to these practices.
