The LGBT+ Staff Network is for all LGBT+ Oxford University staff, academic and non-academic (including OUP and the colleges). Postgraduate students are also welcome to join. The group has an email list that acts as a confidential discussion forum, and also holds various meetings throughout the year, both social and work-related. Membership of the list will be kept confidential. For more information, including how to join, please see the website, which also has information about events and regular activities. There is also a page with information for students.
The university has a group of LGBT+ role models, who have all received training and some of whom are also trained mentors.
