We now cover all Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Queer+ Sistergirl and Brotherboy communities.

We need volunteers to work in a range of areas, from outreach to gay venues, health promotion at LGBTI events, graphic design, fundraising and visiting older LGBTI people (and even some gardening at our Cairns office!).
