    Lots of friends have attended these and found them useful

    Are there any LGBT friendly courses that you would recommend? Non religious etc

    I don't know if there are because it's only a requirement for church weddings. It's worth checking with Accord though if any of their course presenters would be able to direct you to one. I think I threw my workbook away but mostly all they really do is get you to do the exercises in the book and swap/discuss the answers so maybe if you can't find a course, getting a pack from them might work.

    I didn't find our one all that useful, but then we've been together yonks and share a child so there wasn't much they covered that we hadn't already encountered, so for 180quid it was a bit steep - but we couldn't have a church wedding without it so it had to be done. The only religious element is at the end where they bring in a priest for a chat and he takes you though what you need to know for the mass and does a prayer at the end, but the coursework itself has no religious element - if you discount that the wording is aimed soley at hetro couples I suppose.
