What is Out@UCL?

Out@UCL is a staff social network and is a way for lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBT) staff at UCL to get to know each other and take part in social events. The group was set up in July 2009 as some LGBT staff considered that, in an organisation as big as UCL, it was difficult to get to know people in other departments, especially other LGBT people.

What does the network do?

The group networks through lunches and evening events. There is also an email group for members to communicate virtually and share information about LGBT-related events, publications and news stories. Click here to view the flyer for the group.

Is this the same as the LGBT+ Equality Group?

No, the LGBT+ equality group is a policy group which meets every couple of months to discuss how to implement equalities legislation in the workplace and promote LGBT equality. Click here for more information.

How do I become a member?

If you would like to become a member of the network then send an introductory email to out@ucl.ac.uk.
