University of Brighton named UKs most LGBTQ+ friendly university
Hi everyone! Thought I would share some great news from the university!
Brighton has been crowned the UK’s most LGBTQ+ friendly university in a new survey of 2,000 students, scoring an impressive 8.7 out of 10 for inclusivity – the highest in the country. (source) As well as this, last year, for example, the University was ranked 14th in Stonewall’s Top 100 Employers List and awarded the prestigious Stonewall Gold Award, recognising our sector-leading work in creating an inclusive environment for LGBTQ+ staff and students.
The uni has a ton of supports available to LGBT students, from our amazing LGBT Society, to #Never Ok, our disclosure policy.
We also have some specific support for Trans and Nonbinary students, for example.
Thinking about studying at Brighton?
We have a free online event on Tuesday 3 March 2026 4–5pm with current students perspectives on what it is like to study and live in Brighton as an LBGT Student. If you are interested, you can register your interest here
I hope this has shown how the university strives for inclusivity and equality!
Feel free to ask any questions about what is is like to study at Brighton as an LGBT Student.
