We endeavour to meet the needs of the LGBTQ+ and disabled communities through a variety of complementary activities including:
-
Creating education and awareness around the need for greater visibility of the communities we serve within the wider LGBTQ+ and disabled communities;
-
Creating and promoting online and offline activities and events to foster understanding of the experience of being LGBTQ+ and disabled people and to bring the communities we serve together;
-

This role will work closely with Daniele, ParaPride’s Co-founder and Community Engagement Director and the Board of Trustees to identify the skills and capacity required to run the organisation and sourcing candidates to meet them. It will also play a crucial role in developing Parapride’s volunteer benefits package and talent acquisition strategy.

-
Support in the development of a benefits package to support in the acquisition of volunteers (non-salaried).
We will also welcome any additional suggestions for how you might wish to apply your skills to support ParaPride in its mission.
The impact you will have
We expect that hiring this role will be a critical step in ParaPride’s development as being able to engage with people willing and able to support our cause is the only way for us to be able to grow our operations to provide better support for more LGBTQ+ disabled people and deliver more training and workshops to enable others to be become better allies.
About you

We strongly welcome candidates that have lived experiences of being disabled and/or LGBTQ+, although this not an explicit requirement
Level of commitment
We are a growing charity and while it is our goal to provide financial compensation for this role in the future, we are unable to initially. In full transparency, this is only an indication of our ambition and will be dependent on a lot of factors linked to appropriate funding. Please do not apply at this time if this is a primary motivator for you, we hope to have more suitable roles for you in time to come.
