Notes about our application ethos

We are as open to receiving applications from college and university students with student union experience as we are from working professionals, caregivers, retired people and more. The team at Portsmouth Pride are all volunteers and we aim to represent the broadest spectrum of the community that we serve, and we all support each other to make Portsmouth Pride successful year round. All volunteers get involved in representing us at protests, fairs & community events from local markets to national festivals, and we all come together to make the Main Day Event a success year on year, where thousands of people from the community as well as visitors from across the country come together.

Our current volunteers say that “Portsmouth Pride is a really rewarding charity to volunteer with, it’s small enough that you can see your work making a real difference and big enough that you feel part of something impacting a whole community. The people who volunteer with Portsmouth Pride are really committed to their work and so passionate that it’s almost infectious.”
