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.

You can find out more about events happening this month, as well as an introduction from your SU LGBTQ+ Officer, profiles and resources in this page.

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!
