Volunteer Opportunity
In 2025 LGBT Foundation is celebrating 50 years since the roots of the organisation were first established with a year-round celebration and campaign. Activity planned throughout next year will raise awareness of the history of the groundbreaking LGBTQ+ wellbeing services we have offered, showcase achievements of the past five decades and explore our community’s hopes for the next steps of the organisation.
As part of the celebrations LGBT Foundation will be showcasing some of its archive material and the voices of those who have been involved in organisations associated with the history of LGBT Foundation over the past 50 years. As a 50th Anniversary Digital Storyteller you will perform a vital role in gathering stories as part of the 50th anniversary celebrations, assisting with oral history capture, sound editing and transcribing, digital campaigns and capturing new community stories as part of an exhibition about LGBT Foundation’s history.
A role on the team would suit those who are looking for experience in digital storytelling and have a passion for LGBT histories/heritage, equalities, archives and community voice.
This role involves approximately 2 hours per week of volunteering, with sessions to take place in person at Manchester Central Library and LGBT Foundation’s Community Hub in Manchester.
