We’re proud to share that our Accommodation and Halls Life Teams, in conjunction with the LGBTQ+ staff network, have won the Community Impact Award at the Student Accommodation Awards 2025! πŸŽ‰

This category recognises initiatives that create meaningful, positive social impact on students and local communities. We won for our Big Queer Bus Tour and LGBTQ+ History campaigns delivered in February!

The Big Queer Bus Tour

Quote from the panel:

"The University of the Arts London sets a gold standard for inclusive student engagement, with sector-first initiatives like the Big Queer Bus Tour driving measurable impact and long-term cultural change. Its exceptional focus on diversity and community-building makes it a powerful example of transformative practice in higher education."

This is a huge achievement and highlights the creativity, care, and collaboration that make UAL halls such a special place to live and learn.

πŸ‘ A big thank you to the Accommodation and Halls Life teams for creating a positive social impact.
