Student services: supporting LGB students

Student services, including advice, welfare and counselling services, play an important part in creating an accessible and inclusive environment where all students feel that their needs are understood and supported.

High quality support for lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) students leads to improved retention of talent, increased sense of community on campus and improved academic results. Support services that do not recognise the particular needs of LGB students can reinforce feelings of isolation, invisibility and have a detrimental effect on health, welfare and attainment.

With top tips, advice and information, these leaflets will help ensure that your frontline services fully support LGB students. Download the leaflets for student services in higher education, or one for colleges below.
