Our Trainers
For our Gender Awareness Training we work with a small group of highly skilled and experienced trainers who bring with them a wealth of experience from various sectors.
This diverse team includes people working in higher education, equity consultancy, arts and culture and community organising. They draw upon experience working in primary, secondary and higher education, coaching and facilitation experience to support the learning of participants with all kinds of different life experiences.
VOLUNTEERS
We work with a small but dedicated team of volunteers who give their time to help make our events so special. From decorating, to flyering, greeting our audiences, to selling cake they are a vital part of what we do.
We basically think our volunteers are wonderful and we’re very thankful for their contribution to our beautiful queer community. We’re always interested in working with new people, so if you’d like to get involved, drop us a line.
