Behind The Scenes

Who runs the drop-in groups?

Everything is carefully run by the registered charity sexYOUality which aims to help improve the social, emotional and physical well-being of young people under 25 within the Cambridgeshire area who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or unsure of their sexuality.

sexYOUality was founded in 1993 by a small group of dedicated and committed local people from all walks of life. Since this time sexYOUality has retained the spirit and core purposes of its founders but has developed in its organisational capacity and the services it provides.

Fundraising

As always, fundraising is a critical issue for us as a small voluntary organisiation. We will need to secure funding for this year and beyond, and prepare to submit bids to a range of large funding bodies who are committed to the same priorities our work will be contributing to. These will include Comic Relief and lottery-based programmes.

Volunteering

Volunteers take an active role in running the charity – everything from admin work to publicity campaigns; from assisting with new projects to helping run the groups. It’s a great way to give something back to the community, as well as to meet new people, learn new skills, develop a whole new career, or just work with young people whose lives really need your support.

All volunteers involved in youth work undergo a full CRB check and sign up to our child protection guidelines. We also provide ongoing support, including appropriate training and regular supervisions with a line manager. If you’re interested in finding out more, just use the details below.
