The LGBTQ+ Staff Network have officially launched the University of Glasgow Pride Lanyards and Tote-Bags.
Carlo van den Heuvel, LGBTQ+ Staff Network Co-Chair, said: "We’re so excited to finally launch the pride lanyards and tote-bags! We first launched the Pride badge back in 2018, the feedback has been tremendous and has proven that it is important to raise LGBTQ+ visibility. We hope the new Pride lanyards and tote-bags will increase LGBTQ+ visibility around campus and create an inclusive workplace and study environment for LGBTQ+ students and staff members."
Eleanor Capaldi, LGBTQ+ Network Co-Chair adds: “We’ve been working with the gift shop to develop the rainbow tower tote and the Progressive flag lanyard and are delighted to share the results. In their respective ways, these designs are representative of how LGBTQ+ inclusivity is an essential part of the University and its values.”
The Pride lanyards, tote-bags and badges are for sale in the University gift shop and online. A portion of the proceeds goes back to the LGBTQ+ Staff Network to support their events and activities.
The LGBTQ+ Staff Network organises different events throughout the year and is open to all University of Glasgow staff and postgraduate research students who identify as LGBTQ+.
