LGBT History Month has once again been a huge success at 91撸色.

Students and staff alike embraced the month鈥檚 activities, which included Human Libraries, talks in the lecture theatre by LGBT Diversity Champion Nick Buckley, a stall in the College鈥檚 Atrium supported by The Proud Trust and finally, an LGBT History Month quiz.

This year鈥檚 quiz winner was Ivan Varady, a Level 1 business student. Ivan correctly answered all 10 questions and was presented with a 拢20 voucher by Adam Myatt, one of the College鈥檚 LGBT Diversity Champions, who was instrumental in organising this year鈥檚 events.

The response to all of the activities was fantastic - I am so proud to work in such an inclusive College.鈥�
