What difference will you make?

As with all roles in CFK, whilst we ask all volunteers to commit to taking roles for a duration of the project which is expected to last 2+ years, the monthly and weekly time commitment to this role, and its responsibilities, is flexible and needs to suit the incumbent. As a team of volunteers, we are ever so grateful to everyone who agrees to contribute some of their valuable time to the project. However, as a minimum we ask for a commitment of at least two hours a week.  All are voluntary positions with no remuneration offered other than what we hope will be a huge amount of job satisfaction and fun, working with like-minded people with a passion for making a real difference to future generations.
