Emails and personal pronouns

A noticeboard stating personal pronouns

Stating personal pronouns underneath your name or signature in your emails is a quick and easy way to help improve inclusion in the department, and of course, you can set up your email to do this automatically each time you send or reply to a message. 

Some examples are shown below, but please do not feel restricted to these suggestions, and please do use wording which best describes your own identity:

 

[Signature/Name]

Pronouns: they/them

 

[Signature/Name]

Pronouns: she/her

 

[Signature/Name]

Pronouns: he/him
