Last Meeting - 7th May 2009 (Thursday)
With the exam period looming, we've decided to say that the meeting on the 7th May is going to be our last official meeting in MR1 from 7.30pm like usual. The LGBTQ hopes to see you at our following events and wishes all students luck with their exams this summer. Meetings will start again in September.
The Late Picnic - 20th May 2009 (Wednesday)
With the success of Picnic Allsorts we're providing one more before the Summer holidays and again it's open to all ages and groups from Bradford and the surrounding area. Same time and the same place as before but with a few adjustments that we realised we could make after the first run of Picnic Allsorts. So make sure to join us on the Amp at the University for another Picnic where you can meet new people you wouldn't have met before! Bring some food and drink so we can all enjoy the event together!!
Allsorts May - 13th May 2009 (Wednesday)
The final Allsorts of the academic year 2008/09 happens on 13th May and it's MARDI GRAS THEMED! Yes, finally we have a theme and we have fun games so that two of the lucky people at the night can win the title of Mardi Gras King and Queen! Yes indeed! We will also introduce our "30 Minutes of Cheese and Pop" as well and provide you with a great night to say goodbye before the new year starts in September! £2 entry or FREE for official members (aka people on our members list). In Escape at the University, 10pm start until 2am roughly. Drinks deals, balloons and candy for you to enjoy as well as music from our DJ Matt!
Picnic Allsorts - 18th April 2009 - It was a success!!
Picnic Allsorts was a way of combining different LGBT societies and groups in Bradford and the surrounding areas in a space where we could talk and have fun (basically not out clubbing). As the event was planned during the day the turn-out we got wasn't expected but the event was a success and with that we plan on having another one before the summer break! Thank you to everyone who turned up and we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did and that hopefully you will be able to join us for "The Late Picnic" in May!
