A strong Committee is at the heart of a successful Society so planning for succession is vital for our future health. We ‘d love to hear from you if you would be interested in joining the team. If that feels like too big a step then why not share your skills supporting one of our Committee members. We are particularly keen to recruit members with skills or experience in managing web sites, using social media, writing and editing, fundraising or event management. These are just a few of the ways you can get more involved

We are always in need of volunteers to help with organising a warm welcome to all our members. Whether it’s manning the reception desk, supporting our bookstall or organising the tea and coffee before a lecture your support would be very welcome.

If you have a passion for a particular subject or have been a local guide or teacher and would be willing to share your knowledge and expertise then do get in touch. We are keen to offer new things to our members and if you could offer a short talk, a guided walk, a garden tour or introduce a new skill to a small group then let’s work together to make it happen.

If you enjoy working with young children on creative craft activities then we would love to hear from you. We are a small team of enthusiasts. Some of us have previous experience of teaching but it’s your enthusiasm and commitment to helping young people develop which matters most to us.
