Everyday Event Volunteers

At Basildon Pride, Pride is more than a celebration. It is a community that comes together all year round to create safe, welcoming, and inclusive spaces for LGBTQ+ people, their families, friends, and allies.

Our Everyday Event Volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. From helping people make new connections to supporting community events and creating memorable experiences, our volunteers help bring the spirit of Basildon Pride to life throughout the year.

By joining our volunteer team, you'll help support a wide range of activities, including:

• Adult Networking Events

• Pride Families Together events

• Our LGBTQ+ Book Club

• Transcend events

• Hate Crime Awareness sessions through our Safe Space Initiative

Whether you're greeting attendees with a smile, helping set up an event, supporting activities, or simply being a friendly face, you'll play an important role in helping people feel welcomed, valued, and connected.
