The organisation was established in 2014 following the death of Dr Nazim Mahmood, by his long term fiancé Matt Mahmood-Ogston (formerly Matthew Ogston).

The primary objective of the charity is to "tackle homophobia triggered by religion to help parents accept their children". The Foundation campaigns in the national media and give talks in schools and universities. They provide support to LGBTQI individuals and their family to help resolve challenges linked to sexuality, gender identity and religion.
