SOPV Outreach Volunteers

Community

SOPV Outreach Volunteers

Sex on premises venues (SOPVs) are places for men to meet, cruise, and play, and to connect with community and services, like Thorne Harbour Health’s outreach volunteers. Michael and Tex chat with Thorne Harbour Health’s Volunteer Coordinator, volunteers themselves, and a SOPV punter about what makes these spaces hubs for fun and communtiy education. We talk about the social and community benefits of volunteering for an LGBTI organisation like Thorne Harbour Health.
