It helps create a visible presence of LGBTQ+ individuals and allies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Safe Spaces<\/strong>: Lanyards may also indicate that a person or organisation is a <strong>safe space<\/strong> for LGBTQ+ individuals, meaning they are open, welcoming, and non-judgmental. It helps people know where they can be their authentic selves without fear of discrimination or harassment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In essence, LGBT lanyards are small but powerful symbols of <strong>acceptance<\/strong>, <strong>visibility<\/strong>, and <strong>solidarity<\/strong> for the LGBTQ+ community.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like a supply for your department or as an individual ( staff or students), please email <a href=\"mailto:diversity@bath.ac.uk\">diversity@bath.ac.uk<\/a> and we can arrange a time for you to collect them from HR Reception in Wessex House level 3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have lanyards in stock that we can offer to staff and students.
