Mark and partner

Losing it all

When Mark was growing up, homosexuality was illegal, but there came a time when he had to tell people he was gay, no matter what the consequences…

Have you ever had to keep a secret from everyone, even the people closest to you? A secret that if anybody knew, you could face losing everything you had?

Well for nearly 40 years, 67 year old Mark felt he couldn't tell anybody he was gay. In fact, when he was growing up, it was against the law to be homosexual.

Today, he lives happily with his partner in Crewe - but when Mark told his friends, his wife and his children he was gay, his life changed dramatically…
