Welcome to the University of Bath LGBT
Your LGBT Committee, 2009-2010
About us
The LGBT is the support group for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Trans. students at the University of Bath. We are officially part of the Students’ Union (BUSU) and represent L,G,B & T students in both the Union and the University.
Joining us
You can sign up to our confidential mailing list at our external website
www.bathlgbt.co.uk. As a support group we are free, so anyone can come along! Other details about our group can also be found at the link above. You can contact the chairs directly at
chairs@bathlgbt.co.uk.
Support
We feel that the best way to support you is to help put you in touch with people who are like yourself. To this end, we hold weekly meetings, every Thursday at 7pm, in 1W2.7. These meetings are great for getting to know people and also thrashing out some topical issues. If you would like a more one to one approach, we also run a confidential email service, to give advice and information to any students who feel they need support. Feel free to email us on
lgbt@bath.ac.uk or to email one of our committee members directly, details are on the
committee pages .
If you have any questions, need some advice, or just want a chat, we can always be contacted on
lgbt@bath.ac.uk.
We do our best to keep up an active social schedule for our members. Our regular socials involve a trek down to town after each meeting to one of the gay pubs for drinks, hopefully meeting up with people from Bath Spa's LGBT too, Sunday roasts and monthly film nights. In addition, we organise clubbing trips to bristol, and random other events such as ice-skating and bowling.
Although we are here to support LGBT students, we know how important it is to get involved on a national and local level in equality issues that really count, too. Check out our campaings page for details of our current activities!
Other
Also we are happy for members to be as involved, or not, as they want. Many of our members solely attend meetings, others just a few socials and a few come along to just about everything. Whatever you want to do is fine!
