Sam is a Science Student. Louis does Arts. How do they coexist in the same house? One lives upstairs, with a recycled cat called Womble. Sam lives downstairs with a mental border collie named after a motorbike. Sometimes they all sit in the living room and talk about actual stuff, like how they’ve somehow ended up as trans* reps. The dog doesn’t talk though. That would be weird. On a more boring serious note, both are rare non-invisible transmen who fancy most people.
Their plans for the coming year:
- More and varied trans-related events, campaigns and socials.
- Socials catering to those of all budgets including cooking/baking, craft/knitting, meal/coffee socials and film nights.
- Facilitating links between the trans* community and the rest of Pride.
- A resurgence of trans*-related events including speakers, workshops and the upcoming trans* Q&A panel.
- Greater trans* awareness around campus and the wider Coventry community through media campaigning.
- Fostering greater involvement with the wider trans* community.
- Encouraging feedback between reps and community members.
If you have any ideas, queries or requests they can be contacted on the forums (Louis & Sam) or by email at trans@warwickpride.org.
