Are you a passionate LGBTIQA+ person who wants to make a positive difference in our communities? Volunteer for Twenty10 and QLife!
Twenty10 and QLife volunteers are part of a long history – from Campaign Against Moral Persecution (CAMP) in 1970, the first calls at ‘Phone a Friend’ in 1973, and the establishment of the ‘2010’ youth refuge in 1982.
Whether you come to us with specific expertise or are just wanting to lend a hand, we greatly appreciate our volunteers’ contributions and could not serve the community without them.
Our volunteering EOIs are open now! Apply via the form below.
We’re looking for volunteers across all areas, including QLife, Twenty10’s social support programs, and community events and stalls!
Is there a difference between volunteering for Twenty10 and QLife?
QLife volunteers provide peer-based, anonymous support to LGBTIQA+ people via phone and webchat. This role involves listening, supporting people through difficult moments, and helping them feel heard and less alone. QLife volunteers receive specialist training and work within a structured, supported service.
Twenty10 volunteers support our broader community programs, including social support groups, youth and adult programs, and community events and stalls. These roles are varied and hands-on, and are a great way to connect directly with community.

For me, volunteering on the phones is a profoundly community affirming experience. Working with fellow volunteers and listening to callers makes me feel a sense of solidarity and support amongst my queer peers.
PROJECT, ADMIN, EVENTS
Many hands make light work and some people prefer to help out behind the scenes (non client facing).
FACE TO FACE & SUPPORT
Many of our volunteers work alongside our clients, who are often looking to connect with others socially for support.
PHONE & WEB SUPPORT ROLES
Our QLife volunteers provide telephone and web support to LGBTQIA+ people to provide information and one-off support.
