LGBTQ+ Society
If you want to speak to other students from our LGBTQIA+ community or would like to speak to a staff member about LGBTQIA+ and how you are feeling then please speak to Miss Mcintosh who will provide you with further details on how you can join the LGBTQIA+ society. It is a great way to make new friends and receive support. You can either come once of become a regular member.
