What skills do I need?

You need to be a friendly, outgoing person with a confident and approachable manner, along with good communication skills.

How much time will I need to commit?

We ask all our volunteers to donate their time a minimum of five times a year. What commitments they chose too attend is completely up to volunteers. This role is busy within the summer months with the winter months being quieter.
