About the RISE Collective
Founded in 2016 by Mahla Axon and Helen Wadge, the RISE Collective stands as a passionate, grassroots youth-centric force committed to challenging the marginalisation of young people and particularly of those challenging the status quo, exploring activism and social change through art and creativity.

About Queer Joy
Queer Joy is the second series of the RISE Collective’s podcast, AMPLIFY. The series was a culmination of a six-month development programme involving seven emerging queer artists, who participated in workshops, mentorship, and recording while navigating the lockdowns of 2021. These artists were: Destiny Adeyemi, Lucy Awoyemi, Pip Fenton-Cripps, Niamh Haran, Pete MacHale, Kenya Sterling, and Maia Wegener. The Lead Producer and Guest Editor of Queer Joy is Arden Fitzroy.
