  • Enhance your CV; employers appreciate the dedication and drive it takes to be a volunteer.
  • Develop your interpersonal skills; debating, resolution, and listening to all arguments/opinions have a major impact on your ability to understand new or different concepts.
  • Be heard; new successes, initiatives, and perspectives are the lifeblood of a successful team, your ideas will help.
  • Learn; from veterans, business owners and charity workers, an appreciation of learning from history, taking the best ideas forward and finding new opportunities.
  • Enjoy new friendships; our current team is made up of a diverse bunch of characters, who, whilst taking their roles very seriously, never, take themselves too seriously!

We look forward to hearing from you, we particularly encourage applications from those of you who were born after 1989 (though not exclusively!)
