Your parents are there to offer you advice and assistance, meet up with you separately if you’re unsure about attending larger socials (or just want to converse by email), and attend some events with you so that you’ll always have a friendly face to show you around and introduce you to others. 
• LGBTUA+ Staff Network: This Network provides an opportunity for LGBTUA+ staff to meet, share their experiences, discuss related issues, and organise.
