Gaydio worked with a team of dedicated volunteers from the Trans community in Manchester.
We held a meeting at the LGBT Youth North West Headquarters in June where everyone was trained in basic media skills. The volunteers were then given free rein to create the following pages to support Sparkle.
Thanks a million to all the volunteers who gave up their time to carry out interviews, write articles, take photos and edit work!
