Â鶹ӰԺ Pride

Marking LGBTQ+ History Month

See events calendar

Thursday 30 January to Thursday 6 March

Â鶹ӰԺ Pride is returning for an eleventh year, with an exciting month of vibrant events taking place to mark LGBTQ+ History Month. Running from Thursday 30 January to Thursday 6 March, the in-person and online events are designed to raise awareness and celebrate the achievements of the LGBTQ+ community.

This year’s theme is ‘activism’ and focuses on the diversity within the LGBTQ+ community, and the continued fight for civil rights for all.

Zara Hooley and Amelia Roberts, co-chairs of the LGBTQ+ Staff and Allies network said: 

“This year we are showcasing events which focus on smaller minorities within the LGBTQ+ rainbow. Being a queer person means living in a world which hasn’t been designed with you in mind."

“The lived experience of that is a superpower, and we would like to acknowledge and celebrate that. LGBTQ+ staff and students are integral to the fabric of the Â鶹ӰԺ community and continue to make a unique and valuable contribution to its ongoing success."

“Pride is for everyone and we have lots of new and returning events as part of this year’s programme and we would love our LGBTQ+ staff, friends and allies to come along and get involved in.”

Â鶹ӰԺ Pride is about all coming together to celebrate and support the LGBTQ+ community. Please do sign up and attend events if you can, and join us for the Â鶹ӰԺ Pride Launch event on Thursday 30 January in the Campus Centre. We would also like to encourage allies to attend and help to mark the month with the Â鶹ӰԺ LGBTQ+ community.
