LGBT Seminar - 14 to 16 November 2008

The above seminar is aimed at all LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual and Transgender) members. It is a residential seminar and travel and accommodation costs are met centrally by PCS HQ.

There will be workshops and discussion groups as well as some interesting fringe events to ensure a lively and stimulating event.

The evenings provide an opportunity to meet and socialise with LGBT members from across the country and from many different departments.

The seminar helps encourage LGBT members to get active with PCS interests and campaigns.

The Proud seminar gathers together about 100 PCS LGBT members and it is their chance to meet the National Committee, hear speakers and discuss the issues which affect them. The 2008 Seminar is being held at the Queens Hotel in Leeds, 14 - 16 November and the 'theme' is celebrating past successes and identifying issues for the future.

The event is residential with all meals provided. Travel costs are met by PCS nationally via the booking agent Baxter Hoare.
