UEA Students’ Union is proud to announce the launch of the Gender Expression Fund, aimed at providing financial support to students who seek to express their gender identity through clothing, accessories, or other items. This initiative demonstrates the Union’s commitment to fostering an inclusive environment on campus and empowering students to embrace their true selves. 

Understanding that gender expression is a vital aspect of personal identity, the Gender Expression Fund will offer applicants financial assistance to cover costs associated with acquiring items that aid in their expression. 

“We believe that every student should be able to express themselves. University is the perfect place to become your true self” said Nathan Wyatt, Welfare, Community, and Diversity Officer at UEA Students’ Union. “This Fund is not just about financial support; it’s about supporting and affirming some of the most vulnerable members of our student community.” 

The application process is straightforward and accessible, with a focus on ensuring that quick support is provided to those in need. Interested students can find more information and apply through the UEA Students’ Union website Gender Expression Fund
