About Us

The London Gay Men’s Chorus (LGMC) is Europe’s largest LGBTQ+ choir and one of the biggest male voice choirs in the world - with over 200 members. 

As we approach our 30th anniversary at the end of 2021, and prepare ourselves for the next 30 years, we have embarked on a truly ambitious programme of transformational change within the Chorus. For 30 years, we have grown organically as an organisation run primarily by volunteers, with a professional artistic team working at the heart of everything we do creatively and musically. We have launched several key initiatives to upgrade our organisational infrastructure, governance and to place an increased focus on equality, diversity and inclusion across every level of our organisation – to date this has included the launch of both a new 5-year strategy and a full governance review, across 2020 and into 2021.

Over the next five years and beyond we also aim to identify a physical space to house the Chorus and its growing portfolio of work, as well as to scale up our staffing complement to help grow the Chorus in line with our ambitions. 

Our Board of Trustees

With a newly refreshed governance structure, the LGMC will welcome external expertise onto its board for the first time. The day-to-day business of the Chorus is managed by an internally elected Executive Committee, which reports to the Board of Trustees. We are looking for up to three experienced candidates from outside the Chorus to join us as trustees, who will bring fresh eyes and experience to the Chorus at the highest level of decision-making. The skills and experience that we are particularly looking for would ideally be in the following key areas:

• Equality, Diversity & Inclusion
• Fundraising & Business Development

●Governance & Risk Management

Consistent with our values, we would particularly welcome interest from people who will help our board have an ethnic diversity reflective of the community we serve in London, as well as people from the LGBTQ+ community.
