Would You Like To Join Our Management Committee?

Although things have improved, some young lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people continue to be rejected by their family and friends. This can and does result in them having nowhere safe to live. The Outpost Housing Project aims to fill this gap and has been providing accommodation and support to young LGB and T people (16-25) since 1995.

We are looking to expand the interests and expertise of our management committee; to create a diverse team of people who are passionate about, and have a good understanding of, LGB and T issues and are committed to the work that Outpost does.

We ask that you can commit to attending one management committee meeting a month from 6.00pm until 8:00pm. As well as this, we hope that you will get involved in our work, for example, helping to develop advertising materials, getting involved with fundraising activities and generating ideas about how we can develop as an organisation. We would be particularly interested to hear from people who have experience working in the Voluntary and Community Sector, and can offer an understanding of how small charities operate.  We would also like to hear from people who have business or enterprise experience, as this is an area our charity is currently looking to develop.

What and how much you do will depend upon your skills, experience and time available.

To apply please download the application form or contact Heather on 0191 281 0099 or email admin@outpostproject.org to request one.
