LGBTQ+ History Month

The aim of LGBTQ+ History Month is to promote equality, diversity, and inclusivity, by celebrating the lives and championing the work of key LGBTQ+ activists.
LGBTQ+ History Month at Falmouth & Exeter Students' Union

LGBTQ+ History Month

February in the United Kingdom sees us celebrate LGBTQ+ History Month. As your SU we want to celebrate, uplift and support the LGBTQ+ community.

Gender Expression Fund

A Gender Expression Fund within our student union serves as an important and inclusive resource for supporting students' diverse gender identities and expressions. You can use the fund to access gender-affirming items and travel to medical or therapy/counselling appointments. Find out more HERE!
