Introducing…
PLAN
-
PLAN stands for Professional LGBTQIA+ and Allies Network (PLAN).
We are a social mobility network focused on improving the accessibility of career paths for students who identify as LGBTQIA+.
-
Warwick PLAN was founded in 2020, and officially affiliated with Warwick SU in 2021. They set out to provide a safe space for LGBTQ+ students and allies of the community to develop both personally and professionally.
We now have fully functioning societies in Cambridge, Sheffield and Warwick, and are supporting the set up of further societies across the country.
In the past two years the PLAN network amassed nearly 500 students, 100+ events, 3 conferences and has won 12 national awards including the Bright Network Society of the Year 2022.
-
PLAN is wholly supported by National Student Pride. Our partnership started in 2022, and since then has transformed into a department within NSP.
This partnership means we receive valuable support, guidance and resources from the wider NSP team to support a common cause - improving the lives of LGBTQIA+ students.PLAN societies across the country were able to attend the NSP 2023 event in February last year.
Our Mission
PLAN embodies the idea that the possibilities should be limitless regardless of who you are and who you love - instilling confidence, sharing skills, and celebrating queer joy.
Our mission is to educate, encourage and support LGBTQIA+ students & allies in the UK as they explore and navigate their career journey.
At PLAN we harness the power of togetherness, supporting our society network, and guiding students through both their professional and personal growth.
Our societies form the bedrock of the PLAN network.
There’s a few different ways that you can help us transform LGBTQIA+ futures.
By joining us you could:
Start a new PLAN society
Support an existing society to become PLAN affiliated
Become a PLAN ambassador
Whatever you choose, we are here to support you through every step of your journey.
