LGBTQ+ History Month

The theme for this year's LGBTQ History Month is 'Science & Innovation'. This campaign is led by our LGBTQ Officer and the chair of the LGBTQ+ Student Network. Throughout the month, we will be focusing on celebrating queer joy, advocating for an enhanced Trans students experience and providing opportunities to empower members of the community and allies.

There will be an Art Exhibition for queer artists on the 24th February - all creative expressions are encouraged, be that physical arts, games, music, performance art, etc. If you'd like to get involved please email our LGBTQ+ Officer Maia Serket (Maia.Serket@brunel.ac.uk).
