PRIDE & LGBTQ+

MechSoc is an inclusive society that welcomes anyone and everyone - the first to being more open-minded is by educating ourselves. 

LGBTQ+ is not only about who you have sex with and no one has the right to discriminate, ridicule or try to condition who someone loves because #LoveIsLove.

With all that is going on in the world, it is really important to remember how to be an ally - for real. June is Pride & LGBTQ+ month but we are committed to push for equality every day. We strongly believe and advocate that all people should be treated equally, regardless of who they are and who they love.
