We are seeking volunteers who would like to support a small, dynamic, and lovely team with great vision and passion for what we do. We are looking for people who are well organised, enjoy making sure that things are correct (and can spot things which aren’t!) and who want to make our members feel good about the value they bring to our living well project.

Your main activities with this role is to set up the groups if it be musical instrument's, setting up the area to work in, through to making drink for the groups (its thirsty work).
