New Volunteers
We are keenly seeking volunteer team members to add expertise to our line-up. If you have specialised I.T. skills and enjoy meeting and helping people from all walks of life, we would love you to get involved. It's a wonderful opportunity to expand your computing knowledge between jobs and many of our past volunteers have furthered their careers by demonstrating their versatility and keenness through their involvement with us. The rest of us just turn up every Thursday because we sincerely enjoy it and get great satisfaction.
