Brighton & Hove, LGBT Switchboard has been awarded lottery funding to develop its telephone help-line service to reach more people informing and supporting them in new ways using new technologies.
Switchboard Director Natalie Woods, said:
“Our help-line has been informing and supporting LGBT people since 1975 and we recognise that the time has come to expand what we do providing the same service to more people but in different ways. Increasingly people use the internet, smart phones and social media to connect with people and services and we want to enable people to connect with us in this way too.
“This is an exciting time for us – we have just taken on new volunteers who together with our existing team of committed volunteers and a freelance project coordinator will be piloting different ways of working.”
