    JOIN PERTH PRIDE CHOIR

    Questions with a * must be answered.
    If you have decided to be a paid Member of the Choir, please complete this form.
    If you have not yet decided, and want to try us out, or want to find out more, do not complete this form – please contact us here.


    ​CONTACT DETAILS
    __________________________________________

    This is the name that will appear on your member badge and in the directory of Members in the private Members' area of our website. 
    You'll receive a roughly bi-weekly newsletter to this email address. This is how we communicate with you outside of rehearsals.
    The Associations Incorporation Act 2015 requires contact details to be kept in a Member Register which can be viewed by any Member, on request, but only for Choir-related purposes as determined by the Committee. This can be your email,  postal or street address. 
    ​
    We might need to contact someone on your behalf in case you have an accident.


    ​ABOUT YOU
    __________________________________________
    ​

    ​Every member of Perth Pride Choir participates in a safe, respectful space, knowing they can be themselves. That includes your pronouns being respected. You are not obligated to tell us your pronouns. We ask you to understand that even the most supportive Member can accidentally get your pronouns wrong. You can read more about pronouns here.


    ​YOUR MUSIC
    __________________________________________
    ​


    Every year we issue a new repertoire of music, either on paper or as PDFs. You will need to access your sheet music from a tablet whilst in rehearsal. Which format do you prefer? You can change your mind later. 


    ​COMMUNICATIONS AND SOCIAL MEDIA
    __________________________________________
    ​

    Please select YES if photos of you outside of public performance, such as at rehearsal or at a social event, can be used in Choir publicity (including Facebook) in accordance with our Member Privacy & Personal Information Policy. You will not be named in the photo. Choosing to sing in public performances is also approval for photos to be used publicly.

    ​Every Member receives the bi-weekly email newsletter. This is the primary way we communicate with you.
    You can optionally join:
    - The private Facebook group. We share event photos, useful links (such as videos helpful for learning our songs) and interesting updates on the LGBTQIA+ community. You will need to be friended by a Committee member for them to add you. We encourage every Member to join this group – it will not clutter your newsfeed.
    - The private Facebook Messenger group chat. A very informal chat space for all Members, which is also used for last minute communication. For instance, you might be late for rehearsal and want to let your fellow part singers know.
    - The private WhatsApp group for members not able to be in the Messenger group. This is not a chat group and is purely for last-minute communication. 


    ​YOUR SKILLS
    __________________________________________
    ​

    The Choir relies on its Members volunteering their time and skills to make it a success. We'd love to know about any skills you can bring, or areas you're interested in helping out with. 

    ​
