The Metro Centre is an LGBT centre in Greenwich, South-East London. It was founded in 1986, originally as the Greenwich Lesbian and Gay Centre in Bowater Road, Charlton. In 2008 Metro merged with the Harbour Trust, providing HIV-related services to people of African descent.

The Metro Centre promote the Metro 50+ Group for older LGB people.

In January 2013 the Metro Centre moved to new premises within Greenwich.[1] It also has premises in Vauxhall and Chatham.

The Metro Charity Organisation now runs the centre. In 2020, using Heritage Lottery money, the charity produced a short film called 'This is Our Story' about the history of Gay and Lesbian Rights in Greenwich.
