It Gets Better UK Regional Ambassador

Regional Ambassadors to deliver four self-led regional actions per year, and get involved in more ad-hoc actions and activities as these arise.

Key activities include:

• Raise awareness of It Gets Better UK and our work through talking to members of the LGBTQ+ community in your area, and on social media
• Look after our information and fundraising stands at local events – most importantly, hosting an It Gets Better UK stall in your local area.
• Support other members of the It Gets Better UK volunteer team to deliver events in their area by adding capacity where possible, and within a distance that suits you – for example, helping out at a Pride stall run by another Ambassador nearby.
• Deliver talks to local LGBTQ+ groups, community groups, schools etc about the work of It Gets Better UK and how they could help us achieve our goals
• Inspire members of the LGBTQ+ community to add their own It Gets Better story to our work

Volunteers can volunteer whenever suits them. Activities are self led – we ask volunteers to identify and then deliver 4 actions per year which contribute to our mission statement.

We would particularly like volunteers to help at Pride in summer which is usually a Saturday full day
