The Slave Auction
We need you! Have you got a talent that you’re willing to put up for auction? It could be giving guitar lessons, teaching someone to ski, cleaning someone’s kitchen, being a chauffeur for a night out… anything you can think of really! All the money we raise is being used for events and making the society better for you, so please help out if you can :) Message Peter Stephens or any other committee member and let us know.

The slave auction is coming up in a week or so (more on that in the next weekly e-mail.)

The Winter Ball

Christmas is just around the corner and what better way to ring it in than with the lgbt Winter Ball! This year the venue is the Britannia Hotel and the theme is masquerade.

The ticket will get you a three course sit down meal, half a bottle of wine, a private bar with student prices (£1.50 for singles and pints), music, a wonderful venue and an amazing night!

The price will be a mere £23! Tickets will go on sale next Monday and will be available from the ticket office in the union, online, or from committee. You need to get your ticket before the 25th Nov though; after that tickets will be £27.

Venue: The Britannia Hotel
Price: £23 or £27 after the 25th
Theme: Masquerade
