LEARN SOMETHING NEW AND CELEBRATE THE COMMUNITY THIS LGBT+ HISTORY MONTH!
Looking for a Saturday day trip and want to explore the UK? We have you covered with our Sightseeing Saturday series!
February marks LGBT+ History Month across the UK, and to celebrate the occasion, we will be running a Sightseeing Saturday special! Join us for a day out in London, visiting some of the city's best queer museums and exhibitions.
Learn something new and celebrate the community with your LGBTQ+ Students' Officer at FREE exhibition including Queer Britain in Kings Cross and The Zizi Show in V&A Kensington.
After exploring the queer museums and exhibitions, you can spend the rest of the afternoon checking out other iconic museums in Kensington, such as The Science Museum or Natural History Museum. Take the opportunity to explore the city, grab some delicious food, and enjoy the company of friends!
How much are tickets?
Tickets are free! You must register for your free ticket if you would like to attend this trip no later than Wednesday 14th February.
How do I get to London?
Students will be responsible for organising their own transport to and from London. We'll create a group chat for all attendees before the trip to arrange a meeting point that's convenient for everyone. A member of our team will be there to greet you and accompany you to the museums. You can grab a travelcard for the day here.
What is LGBT+ History Month?
LGBT+ History Month is an annual observance that takes place in February in the United Kingdom. It is a time to celebrate the achievements and contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people, as well as to raise awareness of the ongoing struggles and discrimination that they face. The month-long celebration is important because it helps to recognise the diversity and history of the LGBT+ community, and it provides an opportunity for people to come together and support one another.
What other events are happening this LGBT+ History Month 2024?
We have a range of events happening throughout February to mark LGBT+ History Month. Watch your fave LGBT+ movies at our LGBT+ History Month Movie Night, and meet key support services at Pride Market. Additionally, join us in dancing the night away with our fabulous drag queens at GlitterBomb: Drag Night and get to know fellow LGBT+ students and staff at LGBT+ History Month Students & Staff Social.
