• LGBT+ Role Models
  We are keen to build a more inclusive culture at Bristol where all staff can be themselves and where individual differences are valued and encouraged. Our LGBT+ Role Models campaign - Being Yourself At Work will have a significant role to play in demonstrating that being LGBT+ is not a barrier to success and that individuals can be open about themselves at work if they want to be.
• Training
  We organise and facilitate training to increase awareness of inclusion, and the different issues within this topic. Find out more about available training courses, and advice we can offer.

The diversity of our staff and student populations make our University the great and vibrant place that it is. We place a huge amount of value on the vast range of experience and perspectives our people bring to the institution.

We're committed to ensuring that everyone can advance equally and on merit alone. Taking part in the HerStories careers seminars is just one way for women to find inspiration and advice for career progression and leadership development.
