LGBT network

The University of Glasgow Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Staff Network is one of the first in Higher Education in Scotland. We welcome all non-undergraduate members to the network, including all academic and non-academic staff, PhD students and their friends and family.  We aim to provide a welcoming environment in which LGBT staff can:

• meet regularly for social events (both informal and formal)
• support one another within the institution by providing a space where we can safely discuss issues relating directly to us
• inform University policy with respect to LGBT Equality & Diversity
• disseminate information about relevant LGBT events within and out with the University

To enable us to do this the Network has established an on-line space in the University?s virtual learning environment, Moodle. (Details for accessing this can be got from either the LGBT Staff Network Chair, Vicky Gunn, or from the EDU).
