Switchboard helpline with Tash Walker Queer Recollections
-
- 歷史
Switchboard took it's first call in 1974... and hasn't stopped since.
For the past half-century, the calls at Switchboard have reflected contemporary British queer life: from police entrapment of gay men, to lesbian custody battles, to the HIV/AIDS crisis and beyond.
Tash Walker, the current Co-Chair of Switchboard, speaks to Queer Recollections about how the calls have changed, and stayed the same, over the years, what motivates her to pick up the phone, and why the helpline is still so needed in 2020.
Switchboard can be reached via telephone (0300 330 0630), instant messenger or by email on their website.
