LGBT+ Support

Support for our LGBT+ staff and students

LGBT+ Bio

LGBT+ Bio is a social group and welcoming space for LGBT+ staff and students from School of Biological Sciences and their friends to share conversations and catch-up.

After a very successful launch on 1 July 2019 meet ups took place the first Thursday of every month between 12:30 and 13:30 in person pre-pandemic.

We have recently restarted the meet ups online, still on the first Thursday of every month between 12:30 and 13:30 so look out for our email a few days before for the Teams link. Once restrictions allow we hope to move back to in person meet ups.

Staff and students from all Schools and professional services are welcome to join us!

For further information, please contact us at SBS.EandD@ed.ac.uk.

University of Edinburgh Trans Equality Policy

As part of its wider Equality and Diversity strategy the University is committed to providing an inclusive and welcoming community where staff and students are enabled to meet their full potential and are treated as individuals. This includes providing support and understanding to those individuals who wish to take, or have taken, steps to present themselves in a gender different to their birth gender.
