What made you choose to join the AberGays Society?

I wanted to meet other queer people in Dundee.

How does the AberGays Society create a safe and inclusive space for its members?

The AberGays society has regular meetings where we play games or have a crafts night or similar. Which are a safe space for members to meet people. The online discord is kept safe through active moderation.

Can you share a personal story of empowerment or growth that you attribute to your involvement in the AberGays Society?

The Abergays society being an open and accepting space was part of the reason I realized I was transgender. Having a space where I could comfortably be myself and also experiment was very helpful in discovering myself.

Looking to the upcoming academic year, what are the goals and aspirations of the AberGays society? Are there any specific campaigns, initiatives or policy changes that the society aims to pursue?

One of our goals this year is to raise funds for the society for events. We also aim to increase the amount of members we have within the society.
