The Club hugely appreciates all of those who volunteer for us. Without the time and effort that so many people in the Club give, we would not be able to operate.

We currently have two important volunteering opportunities at the Club and we are looking for two people to join our team of volunteers. This can be just for the 2026 season if you are unable to commit beyond. It would be wonderful if we could have these two roles filled by the AGM on Sunday 25 January.

We appreciate everyone involved in a voluntary role at the Club is busy, but if you could spare a few hours a week to ensure the Club can continue in the safe hands of our volunteers, we would be most grateful for your support. The Club is always at its best when we have the support of volunteers across all areas from managers and admin to Committee Members and their roles. All the details are below and you will have full support from our our outgoing Treasurer, Rob Owen.

Please do read through the details below and feel free to ring me for an informal chat if you would like to discuss any aspect of the role. There is a role description available for each position which gives more detail and I would be happy to email that to you if you are interested.

You may be wanting to gain more experience to aid your career, or you may be very experienced but have some time to spare to assist our Club which is diverse, expanding and progressive. Both roles have the potential to provide the following benefits for you.

Support a cause you care about.
Gain valuable experience in non-profit finance.
A flexible volunteering opportunity which fits into your schedule.
Working alongside colleagues in the Club and seeing first-hand the important role the Club plays in the Community.

If neither of these roles are for you but you know a member of your family or a friend who may be interested, then please do ask them to get in touch. We would really appreciate it. We are sure there are many members, friends and family who have the required skills and we would very much like to hear from them.
