During this time he was also the College's nominated Gay Officer, taking an active role in representing the LGBTQ+ community at NUS conferences and more locally. Hugo's political activism eventually led to his campaign to lower the gay age of consent, culminating in a landmark change to the law in 1994. Now a freelance journalist and writer, Hugo continues to shine a light on important LGBTQ+ stories and other political matters.
