Thanks Charles.
Though I am aware of all the projects you list, I don't see any as
being especially related to the UK, and it was those UK events we used
to drive for ourselves that I was thinking of.
In fact it's great that all the initiatives mentioned are
international, pretty much the sort of global view that I have when
thinking about current and future Wikimedia LGBT+ projects. Maybe
that's an improvement, though it does effectively bypass our old ideas
about the value of local wiki meets and so forth.

That a bit "où sont les neiges d'antan?" Roger Bamkin and the Women in Red
project are going great guns. John Cummings is quietly busy at UNESCO
getting things released into the wild. Wikidata has prompted innovations
such as Histropedia, to give just one UK example, and on the educational
front Magnus Manske last week made a breakthrough with his WikiBase site
Comprende! (see
http://magnusmanske.de/wordpress/?p=446), which has got the
WMF interested.
