LGBTQ flag of rainbow colours

LGBT+ History Month happens every February in the UK. The month helps to increase the visibility of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (“LGBT+”) people, their history, lives and their experiences in the curriculum and culture of educational and other institutions, and the wider community. At Imperial we have decided to use the term and celebrate LGBTQ+ History Month.

If you are planning an activity for LGBTQ+ History Month, or an EDI event at any time of the year, please get in touch with the EDI Centre.
