Connect: This is an exciting opportunity with a lot of potential. However, it needs enough volunteers each week to ensure it runs smoothly. If you feel you could help please contact Pete.
Existing Volunteers: could all those who are currently assisting at Wacky Weds, OurSpace and Focus return their Access NI forms as a matter of urgency. They should be given to Ross Irvine, with appropriate proofs of identification, because only he can check them and we can then get them processed. If there are any problems don’t hesitate to contact Pete or Ross.
