OPPORTUNITIES TO BE INVOLVED WITH CPRE HEREFORDSHIRE'S WORK

Time Commitment and Terms

If you have just a few hours a month to spare, we can find a valuable role for you. We offer appropriate training and can reimburse all relevant expenses. All our volunteers work from home and keep in touch by e-mail and through this website and its linked “members’ area”. We have monthly meetings. Job holders are most welcome to attend as often as they wish, ‘though in practice some of the roles above do not require regular attendance.

Job Descriptions
These are available for the jobs listed. Please e-mail for copies without commitment, or to ask questions.

Enjoyment
CPRE Herefordshire is a happy band of volunteers. Our volunteers join us - and stay on – because they enjoy what they do and believe that it makes a difference to our environment here in Herefordshire. We all seem to like working as a team of like-minded people. What better advertisement than this picture of Tony Isaac(right), who retired in June 2004 after serving as our Hon Treasurer for 22 years.

We hope we’ll be good at making newcomers feel welcome and useful. Do contact us if you are tempted.
