Cardiff has risen to 14th place, its highest ever spot in the Index and the UK's highest ranked university. Up nine places on 2017, Cardiff is also recognised for the first time as a Top Trans Employer in recognition of its commitment to transgender equality. Vice-Chancellor, Professor Colin Riordan said: "The Stonewall Top 100 is one of the key benchmarks we use to ensure the University remains committed to LGBT+ equality. "A rise to 14th place, up from 23rd in 2017, is testimony to the dedication and hard work of everyone involved and clearly demonstrates our ongoing commitment to diversity. "We are also immensely proud to have been given additional recognition of making it into the Top Trans Employers 2018 and becoming a 'Stonewall Top Trans Employer'.
