I am proud and delighted that the University of Edinburgh Staff Pride Network has been awarded Stonewall Scotland Network Group of the Year for their breadth of work supporting LGBT+ staff at the university and in helping develop its LGBT+ inclusion work. I, along with our Equality, Diversity & Inclusion team, look forward to continuing working with and supporting our Staff Pride Network to take forward the University’s LGBT+ agenda.

The Staff Pride Network serves as a resource for the rich diversity of LGBT+ staff working across the University. It hosts a range of formal and informal events, provides a safe space for the discussion of LGBT+ issues, and offers confidential support and advice.
