Our Community Engagement Leads (CELs) meet once every month to update each other on what they’ve been getting up to. Read more about their progress from February below!
Community Engagement Lead Updates
Alex Powell – LGBTQ+ Community Engagement Lead
In February, I assisted in organizing and running activities designed to celebrate LGBTQ+ History Month. These activities were organized throughout Scarborough, Coventry, and London – and were designed to help educate people about LGBTQ+ History Month and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community whilst raising awareness about LGBTQ+ issues.
As a reminder – the Gender Expression fund is still up and running for all students interested, to learn more please click here
Natalie Ho – International Community Engagement Lead
Unfortunately, Natalie was not available for our recent meeting – and so was unable to provide an update on her activity. Please stay tuned for future updates from March!
Nico Hlaing – Disabled Community Engagement Lead
In February, I continued to monitor our Disabled Community WhatsApp group chat, and began planning for a Disabled Community Games night – which I expect to host in March. Outside of this, I am actively looking for other opportunities to contribute towards the Disabled Community at Coventry University.
Obonganwan Akpabio – Women’s Community Engagement Lead
I have been planning for International Women’s day throughout February, and intend to have a very active schedule of activities ready for people to enjoy. These will include, but are not limited to, society collaboration events; guest speakers; and informational sessions designed to celebrate being a woman.
