Outright Scotland is an LGBT rights organisation based in Edinburgh, Scotland. Founded as the Scottish Minorities Group (SMG) in 1969, and later known as the Scottish Homosexual Rights Group (SHRG), it was the country's first LGBT rights organisation. The group ran as a self-help organisation working for the rights of homosexual men and women, and aimed to provide counselling, work for law reform, and provide meeting places for lesbians and gay men.
