LGBT Foundation - Volunteering Form
Check out our new role profiles here to find out more about the roles we are recruiting for specifically.

Personal Details and Demographics

Why are we asking this information?

It is important for us to us know that people from all backgrounds and communities feel comfortable coming into LGBT Foundation and/or volunteering with us. It is also often a condition of our funding that we monitor the demographics of our staff, volunteers and service users. However, all of the questions remain optional and if you choose not to answer any this will not affect your volunteering.

We are currently taking steps to ensure LGBT Foundation can be an inclusive place for all volunteers, and in doing so we are making a commitment to embody anti-racism, and to challenge misogyny, ageism, transphobia, biphobia and disabled discrimination within our work.

References
It is our preference that we speak to referees who know you in a professional capacity. We understand you may not be able to provide two professional references if you have not worked within the last 3 years, or are not out at work or university. If so, you may provide personal referees as one or both of your options.

A personal reference can be someone who has known you for the last 5 years and can speak to your character. It can also be a person of standing (click here for examples) within your community.

If you have any questions about this, please email us at volunteer@lgbt.foundation.

Volunteer Declaration
Below we have our volunteer declaration, which explains a couple of things about your personal data like your email address. In order to volunteer, we need you to select yes. If you select no, LGBT Foundation will not be able to contact you, and will delete any record of your volunteering form within 2 working days. If you wish to volunteer you will have to resubmit the form fully again, and select yes to the declaration.

By selecting Yes, you agree to that you have read, understood and agree to the following:
- LGBT Foundation will use the details I have entered during the recruitment process. LGBT Foundation may contact me for an informal discussion, and will send updates and further steps of recruitment if my application is successful.
- My references will be contacted by a member of staff from LGBT Foundation if my application is successful. Any offer of volunteering with LGBT Foundation is subject to satisfactory references, as well as completion of all processes that form a part of LGBT Foundation’s volunteer recruitment.
- LGBT Foundation is committed to creating a volunteer programme which reflects the diversity of our communities. This includes dedicated efforts to be anti-racist and include more people of colour, to be trans-inclusive throughout the organisation, to empower women and women-aligned people, and to be inclusive of people over 50, as these communities are currently under-represented in our volunteer team. LGBT Foundation will use my demographic information to evaluate where further inclusion work is needed.
- LGBT Foundation may hold and use personal information about me to inform me about the Volunteer Programme at LGBT Foundation and to keep in touch with me about events and opportunities through the Volunteer e-bulletin.
- This information, including that contained in this form will be stored within computer files and data management systems. This information will be held for 7 years from your end date.
- All information given will be kept in the strictest of confidence and in accordance with General Data Protection Regulations. It will be held securely and only accessed by authorised personnel.
- I can request my data to be removed from the Volunteer mailing list at any time, and can do this by clicking on the link at the bottom of the Volunteer e-bulletin.
- I am responsible for urgently notifying LGBT Foundation of any changes to my personal details that affect my safety when I am actively volunteering, such as a change in phone number, email address, or emergency contact.
- I am responsible for notifying LGBT Foundation about any changes to my personal details such as my name, sexual orientation, gender, trans status or pronoun usage, where I am comfortable sharing this information.
