LGBTQ+ History Month 2025
This year the theme of LGBT+ History Month is all about activism and social change. In our celebrations this year, it is even more important that we:
- Claim our past
- Celebrate our present
- Create our future
In line with the theme this year, there are five LGBT+ people that have been chosen who have created social change from across the centuries in progressing change for women, the environment, housing, nuclear disarmament, preserving heritage, abolition of the slave trade, and immigration, among many other causes.
The 2025 LGBT+ Historical Figures are:
- Octavia Hill
- Ivor Cummings
- Annie Kenney
- Charlie Kiss
- Olaudah Equiano
At Greenwich Students’ Union, Kent Students’ Union and Christ Church Students’ Union, there are various events and celebrations taking place that students can get involved in! This is alongside an LGBTQ+ Crafternoon session that we are holding here at The Hub on 25th February.
