Our Volunteers are the people who make the magic happen at Pride Outside!
We have over 40 volunteers who support us with our Wellbeing Programmes and our annual Pride Outside LGBTQ+ Wellbeing Festival which takes place in September in a beautiful Glasgow woodlands. Our volunteers support us with everything from our social media to our entertainment tent and Proud Dog show at the festival! Our volunteers come from a diverse range of backgrounds and we always provide travel expenses, food and drink and support, as we want to make volunteering accessible to everyone in our community.
Our festival takes place in September and our Volunteer programme runs from June to August, so we usually start advertising volunteering opportunities in May. The Volunteer programme includes accredited mental health first aid training, wellbeing sessions outdoors and a great opportunity to meet other LGBTQ+ people and new friends in a safe and sober space.
We also have a big Volunteer community meal after our festival - which if everyone is honest, is probably our favourite part!
