OUTWEST Ireland is a voluntary social and support group for Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual people in the West of Ireland. It was founded originally in 1997 as Mayo Roscommon Outreach by a number of gay people from the region, with the aim of providing the Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual community in the West with a support network. The group holds an informal meeting on the first Friday of every month at various venues in the West of Ireland.

The meetings give Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual people an opportunity to meet together in relaxed and friendly atmosphere and to discuss group events and gay issues. People attend from Sligo, Donegal, Mayo, Leitrim, Roscommon, Galway and the midlands. On average 25 people attend, new faces appear regularly and are always welcome.

The group organises social outings and events, some of which are discos, several times a year, in various venues in the West of Ireland.
