Donate to support West Yorkshire Queer Stories!

WYQS has been made possible through funding by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. We still need to raise £10,000 match-funding to ensure we reach our target of building the biggest, most diverse and most accessible collection of queer oral histories in the UK.

Your donation will contribute to web development expenses, volunteer travel opportunities and transcribing stories online to make them more accessible to all.

I want West Yorkshire Queer Stories to treat all donations I make to the project to be Gift Aid donations.
