An elderly gay couple living in the Creggan area of Londonderry say they may be forced to leave because of ongoing homophobic attacks.
In the latest incident, a gang threatened to burn the couple - one of whom is disabled - out of their home.
David McCartney, manager of the Rainbow Project, said it had reached "the stage where these two men feel they have to speak out".
"And it's quite a courageous thing for them to do," he said.
"The stuff that's been happening to them has been quite severe - windows put in, their front door kicked in, their car damaged..."
The Rainbow Project is a support group for gay and bisexual men in Northern Ireland.
