Would your organisation like to join the
Leeds LGBTQ+ Community Consortium Steering Group?
Leeds LGBTQ+ Community Consortium is working with partners to reduce social isolation amongst older, unwell, disabled or otherwise restricted members of the LGBTQ+ communities.
We don’t have an office base, and are run entirely by volunteers and freelancers. A lot of the volunteering opportunities we have, aren’t to do specifically with working directly in the community and are more surrounding the ongoing digital organisation that goes into managing our schedule and programme.
The volunteering opportunities we have at the moment are:
Digital admin assistant –
In this role, independently you will be supporting our co-ordinator in digital administration. The role would include sending emails to facilitators with information as to who’s signed up for sessions, and uploading and sharing information to websites and forums, that will encourage new people to find our sessions and workshops.
In person table tennis volunteer –
This volunteer would support our table tennis facilitator, in the running of the table tennis club that happens twice a month in Leeds. You will support the facilitator in setting up as well as joining in with other attendees.
Marketing volunteer –
In this role, you will support us in the marketing of events at the consortium. This role will include, putting up posters and sharing flyers in community centres, contacting local organisations / publications and forums to promote our work, and assisting our social media volunteer in their promotion of our programme.
We also are constantly looking for facilitators to run sessions for us at the consortium. If you have an idea for a session (this could be any type of club, craft or workshop) that you would like to run either online or in person, please let us know.
If any of these roles seem interesting to you, we’d love to discuss further the ways you can get involved.
“It’s a really lovely reflection of the consortium and the Leeds LGBTQ+ community in general, at the sessions everyone’s really welcoming. Whenever someone new joins, people are really keen to introduce themselves and welcome them to the sessions. There’s a huge mixture of people and what I really like is that you defiantly see people go for different reasons. Some people go just for the exercise, some people are there to be in the safe space and to socialise with other folk from their community, some people come with their friends.”
