Volunteer's Forum

The Forum supports the volunteers in providing a channel of communication with the board and management on all aspects of the Friends’ operations. These can include, but are not exclusive to: visitor centre operations, training for volunteers, social activities for volunteers, recommendations on fundraising activities, community engagement, customer services and presentations.

The Forum is a sounding board and information sharing platform, managing its own affairs and where appropriate taking on delegated responsibilities. It also offer volunteers an opportunity to socialise and generate ideas.
