A blue cog in the middle of brown cogs

All of us have unique identities which are composed of different aspects of who we are. Are you male? Are you white? Are you gay? Do you have a disability? What beliefs do you hold?

Nottingham Trent University is committed to the ongoing development of an inclusive environment where these aspects are not ignored or devalued. Each one is complex and requires acknowledgement and the freedom to exist without oppression.
