Volunteer with Us
Salford Pride is a leading LGBTQ+ charity and continues to grow, delivering more projects each year, expanding into new activities that attract guests from across Greater Manchester and beyond. We are expanding our team to continue to see Salford Pride flourish and have great opportunities available for people to get involved. All our positions are voluntary and previous experience in a similar role is beneficial but not a requirement.
In our own words…
Here are some of the first hand experiences from some of our volunteers on why they volunteer chose to get involved with Salford Pride.
“I first joined Salford Pride to gain some experience, after a few months I grew a passion for helping LGBTQ
+ people and wanted to support the charities’ growth in order to do that. The best thing about volunteering at Salford Pride is meeting like minded people, who I have been able to learn a lot from.
”
“I’ve been involved in a lot of pride events as a performer and seen how they work behind the scenes and what values they place importance on. I became part of the Salford Pride to add my voice as a trans person to a new and growing pride who clearly cares about the community, is keen to put on free and accessible events, and puts importance on progressing LGBTQ+ rights, causes & culture.
”
“I’ve been with the organisation for over 11 years now and have seen the passion and drive of our volunteers to enhance the lived experience for local LGBTQ+ of Salford to help create a safer, inclusive and accepting city for all that live, work and study here.”
