Hello and welcome to the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans Society, aka, LGBT!

My name is Andreas and I'm your President and LGBT Officer. On behalf of the Committee & membership we'd like to extend a warm welcome! :-)

We are a very active society full of welcoming members, and we would be happy to have you join our jolly society. We have all experienced those first frightening steps into your first ever LGBT meeting, therefore we know how scary it is and want to make sure you feel as welcomed as possible. Going to your first meeting of any society, especially if you feel that you're 'coming out' just by walking in the door, can be intimidating and we want you to know that we aren't that scary really and we value all members regardless of their sexuality. Even if you're straight or questioning your sexuality you can come along and meet some like-minded individuals. Perhaps you will make long-lasting friendships that stay with you throughout your time at Stirling. Or maybe you'll just make some new drinking buddies. So far no one has run screaming from the room.

Our meetings are usually held on Tuesday in the Long Bar in the Union at 8pm, but we often have events in Stirling such as pub crawls and bowling trips, as well as trips to Glasgow and Edinburgh.

If you would like to find out more about the society or if you'd like to meet up before a meeting so you know someone there already feel free to email me on susa-lgbt@stir.ac.uk.

If you have any problems/issues/questions, need support or simply need someone to lend you a friendly ear, then contact me or the committee. I run relevant LGBT campaigns, represent LGBT students within the Union and offer support to any self-defining LGBT student regardless of whether they are a member of the society.
