UEA is a welcoming, positive and inclusive university for prospective students.

We have a thriving Staff Pride network for those who identify as LGBT+, and a fast-growing staff network of LGBT+ allies (you can spot them by their rainbow lanyards) We’re currently expanding these networks' visibility with LGBT+ representative biographies and staff articles.

We’re also working to improve the experiences of our trans and non-binary colleagues. Our activity includes reviewing policies around transitioning in the workplace, and releasing new online training modules around understanding and respecting trans+ colleagues and students. 

Some ways to get involved

Prospective UEA students who'd like to find out more about the LGBTQIA+ scene in Norwich, including safe spaces for LGBT+ people, can connect with advisory groups and Norwich Pride.

You can also explore Norwich Pride's directory of LGBT+ and LGBT+ friendly venues, organisations and businesses and the UEA student's union Pride Society.
