Yunus was a passionate Queer Screen volunteer who dedicated his life to volunteering, and participated in a phenomenal number of volunteer events and causes across Sydney for almost two decades.
Yunus came to Sydney in the early 2000s, and started volunteering almost immediately. Although he was always a Melbourne boy at heart, we were proud to claim him as our own.Yunus cared deeply about his volunteer family, and his unique sense of style and fun was much loved – he always had bundles of cheeky humour and smiles to share.He became a permeant fixture at Queer Screen festivals over many years, never failing to bring the rainbow glamour and glitz: sparkly bracers, light-up bow ties, a pink tutu, and an array of stylish hats were among his.
