George House Trust turns 40 in 2025 and we want to tell the story of HIV and the associated activism, heroism, passion and loss. The story of HIV in Manchester, or even a broader Northern perspective, has had limited exposure, and we want to change that. We also hold an important collection of archive material.
We have received funding from National Lottery Heritage Fund to deliver a project to:
- Preserve the archive material and make it more accessible.
- Deliver an exhibition and programme of events that focus on the organisation’s history, the HIV story in Manchester and the North West, and celebrating the progress made.
The first part of the project focuses on cataloguing our archive and undertaking an oral history project with the help of volunteers in 2024. The second part of the project focuses on the delivery of the exhibition and events programme during 2025.
George House Trust is looking for an External Evaluator to support its 40 Years of HIV Activism in Greater Manchester Project. As a minimum, the Evaluator will deliver on the following principal responsibilities:

- To train staff in the data collection methods (November-December 2024)
- To create a mid-term (September 2025) and final Evaluation Report (March 2026) for the project
- Reporting to the Project Lead on progress throughout
