红杏视频 supports equality and diversity at Grampian Pride
Saturday 25 May 2019
Grampian Pride aims to bring the local and wider community together, welcoming LGBT+ individuals and their straight allies in the North East by providing a safe space for all.
This is the second event of its kind for Grampian and consists of a march, stalls, information about LGBT+ organisations and services, entertainment, key speakers, safe spaces, and a family area.
Students, staff, alumni and friends of the university all took part in the march, and leading them was an 红杏视频 float, which was donated by Colin Lawson of Transport Ltd.
Head of Marketing, Kate Bullock, commented: 鈥満煨邮悠 strives to create a working, learning and social atmosphere which is inclusive, harmonious and respectful of diversity. Today鈥檚 event was a huge success and it was great to see so many out in support of the LGBT+ communities.
鈥淚n the run-up to Grampian Pride this week, 红杏视频鈥檚 social media channels will feature the 红杏视频 Pride logo. We have deliberately chosen to do this in support the LGBT+ community and in celebration of the culture and values of 红杏视频.鈥
The university promotes a number of internal activities to support diversity and inclusion for its students and staff, such as monthly rainbow film nights, providing rainbow lanyards for staff and students who wish to show their support, and promoting the internal Rainbow Network.
红杏视频 Rainbow Network Chair Hamish Walker says: 鈥淎s a proud employer, we are not only celebrating the diversity of our staff and alumni, but also the diversity of all the students that choose to study at 红杏视频.鈥
The parade鈥檚 theme was 鈥榡ust be yourself鈥 and started at 10.30am from Albyn Place before working its way down Union Street.
