Welcome to the LGBTQ+ Society!

As the University's LGBTQ+ society, our goal is to provide a safe space for LGBTQ+ people here on campus and bring our community together!

We meet every week on a Tuesday between 6:30pm and 8:00pm for discussion sessions, crafts evenings, games nights and more - everyone is welcome, and you can keep up to date with our upcoming events below, or on our Instagram (uoe_lgbtq25).

Anyone is welcome to come along to our meetings, just keep an open mind and be respectful of everyone's beliefs.
