Our team is supported by amazing volunteers whose contribution spans across the organisation.
Most of our volunteers work directly in our peer-led youth groups with LGBTQ+ young people alongside our professional youth work staff. Other roles undertaken by volunteers include supporting our fundraising and governance through various subcommittees and working groups.

“Volunteering with Belong To means the world – this service is such a strong force for positivity, and I’m honored to be a part of it. The young people make my life brighter, and I’m so thankful to have them in my life.”
– Maggie McAlister (she/her), Belong To Volunteer
Youth Engagement Volunteers
Belong To’s vision is for an Ireland where lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) young people are equal, safe, and valued in the diversity of their identities and experiences. We work with LGBTQ+ young people as equals to achieve our vision through youth work, changing attitudes, and research.
The role of our Youth Engagement Volunteers is to assist and support Belong To’s youth workers to engage young people in our weekly groups. These groups meet in the evenings, Monday to Thursday, in a Dublin city centre location. Training is provided for all volunteers.
