The iconic Edge Hill University building, which dates back to 1933, is being boldly
illuminated with rainbow colours for the first time as Monday 5th – Friday 9th February sees its Students’ Union celebrate PRIDE WEEK 2018.

It means a host of LGBT+ events and activities happening across the campus, including a PRIDE march, film night, a series of Workshops, and a Pride SOCIAL.

Said EHSU’s LGBT+ Officer, Yasmin Lee, said: “Our theme this year is ‘Proud to be with EHSU’.

"This is to recognise and celebrate the diversity within our university and how
our campaigns are a stepping stone towards making our university inclusive.

“Lighting up Edge Hill University’s main building, a building that is Edge Hill’s most
recognisable and historical feature, demonstrates our compassion towards the
hardship that our LGBT+ community have experienced.

"This is to demonstrate unity and ultimately pride to be yourself!”
