The Stonewall Workplace Equality Index is run by the Charity Stonewall, and each year employees are asked to fill out a questionnaire detailing their work experience and the support they receive from their employer. The University is once again within the top 20 UK employers recognised for its work achieving acceptance without exception for all LGBT people.<\/p>\n<p>But while we\u2019re undoubtedly proud of this achievement, we want to hear from our LGBTIQ+ colleagues across FSE and learn about their real and unique experiences working here.<\/p>\n<p>So without further ado, let\u2019s hand over to four of our colleagues who volunteered to share their experiences.<\/p>\n<h2>Dr Charlie Wand \u2013 Research Associate in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Science<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2173\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2019\/08\/Charlie-Wand.jpg\" alt=\"Trans man with Pride flag\" width=\"503\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2019\/08\/Charlie-Wand.jpg 503w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2019\/08\/Charlie-Wand-300x194.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 503px) 100vw, 503px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I joined the Department of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Science at the start of last year as a postdoctoral researcher. Since joining The University of Manchester, I have felt supported and able to be open about my sexuality and gender identity as a Bisexual Trans man. Not having to hide a part of myself means that not only am I happier, but my work is also better as I don\u2019t have to waste energy watching what I say or worrying about whether people know.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Dr Maddison Coke \u2013 Experimental Officer at the National Graphene Institute<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2174\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2019\/08\/Maddy-Coke.jpg\" alt=\"Research tech with Pride magazine\" width=\"612\" height=\"393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2019\/08\/Maddy-Coke.jpg 612w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2019\/08\/Maddy-Coke-300x193.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 612px) 100vw, 612px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As every person in the LBGT community will tell you, coming out doesn\u2019t happen just once &#8211; you have to do it for the rest of your life. I think starting UoM as an experimental officer three years ago was my \u2018Coming Out, Part 2\u2019. It was the second environment I had been in after coming out to those around me back during my PhD. But from day one, I have always felt like I could bring my whole self to work. I can be quite quiet and it takes some time to get to know me, but I have never felt like I couldn\u2019t talk about my partner, or bring up my relationship. I have enjoyed working in an environment where not only can I be part of cutting edge science working with graphene, but also do so in a positive environment. I am proud to be part of a wonderful team that helps run the NGI cleanroom with a great bunch of diverse, accepting people &#8211; so much so, half of them will be attending my wedding to my partner later this month!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Charlotte Hooson-Sykes of the Department of Physics and Astronomy<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2175\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2019\/08\/Charlotte.jpg\" alt=\"Woman holding bi flag\" width=\"404\" height=\"258\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2019\/08\/Charlotte.jpg 404w, https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2019\/08\/Charlotte-300x192.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 404px) 100vw, 404px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I started working at the University in 2001, coming from the commercial sector and an area in particular that was very rigid in its views. Working here was eye opening, and it gave me the opportunity to be far more open about myself, and far less closeted as a bisexual woman. And that openness has opened other doors both in the University, and outside. I collaborate on projects with others in the LGBTIQ+ community, and get to walk in the parade with my peers and colleagues.
