As Welfare Officer my responsibility is to ensure that members of the LGBT community have access to support, whenever they should they need it, both at college and university level. This involves close work with other reps to address any welfare issues relating to the whole or part of the LGBT community. Equally as important is the welfare of individuals. College LGBT reps are a point of contact for anyone needing support with issues to do with sexuality or gender. There are a number of alternative options: the ‘support’ section is a good place to find the right person to talk to. Please feel free to contact me, using the address above, if you need advice, support or have any questions about welfare.
