Stonewall has a long history of championing LGBT+ (lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and trans) equality and helping organisations become LGBT+ inclusive. Sheffield Hallam is proud to be a Stonewall Global Diversity Champion and one of the benefits of our membership include access to a fantastic range of personal and professional development opportunities that we want to share with you.
The programmes below are for people who would like to become LGBT+ role models. There are also Allies programmes, for people to broaden their knowledge and understanding in making workplaces inclusive environments for all.
