We need friends!

In addition to traditional volunteering roles, we would also like to build up a network of 'friends' who are willing to share our tweets and facebook updates, display our posters and leaflets or even distribute them and be open to completing the occasional survey.

There is no time commitment involved in becoming a friend, we would like to chat with you - either face to face or by phone, so we know you understand our work and our values and what we are hoping our 'friends' can do for us. We will then take some contact details, and keep you updated on what we are doing. You can then choose to share and promote as many or as few events, campaigns and research activities as fit in with the rest of your life.

You can choose to only be a friend or you might want to occasionally help out with an event. Email us to find out more
