Get involved in the push for equal rights

The Lobby is a volunteer-based community organisation whose goal is to achieve legal equality and social justice for lesbians and gay men. It relies on the hard work and support of people like you.

There are 4 ways you can get involved (or a combination of the 4):

Become a Supporter

Does freedom sound like a good investment to you? We work throughout the year on projects that help to address social and legal discrimination against lesbians and gay men. The donations received from Supporters allow the Lobby to focus less on fundraising activities and more on the actual work of lobbying for equal rights.

By choosing to donate today, you are actively helping our community to reach for what is rightfully ours.

Become a Volunteer

Want to get your hands dirty? You do not need any special skills or experience to help out. Volunteers are required throughout the year - from helping for a couple of hours at specific events to working on longer-term projects.

Volunteers with specific skills or interests may also want to get involved in a range of ongoing working groups including IT/Website, Media, Fundraising & Events and Finance & Accounting.
