23/06/21 Legion Links Volunteer Opportunities
Please see below message - Ideal for those members wanting Voluntary Work. Any queries should be addressed to the author direct.
Sean Murphy (Secretary)
I’m getting in touch to let you know about The Royal British Legion’s new project, Legion Links.
In short, the Legion Links project intends to create a national network of social groups offering support to carers in the Armed Forces community. The programme aims to help Armed Forces carers feel less lonely and isolated because of their caring role, by supporting them to develop interests, friendships, and engage more with their communities. Each group will be coordinated by two newly created volunteer roles, Support Group Facilitators and Support Group Administrators. At the moment we have two confirmed locations in the Midlands, the National Memorial Arboretum and the Royal Air Force Museum Cosford. We hope to launch support groups at these locations in August 2021. I’m currently in the process of recruiting volunteers, I’m hoping to recruit 2 Support Group Facilitators, and 1 – 2 Support Group Administrators for each location. We have a Legion Links webpage for more information, as well as having our volunteer roles listed on the website.
Please find the volunteer role descriptions: Facilitator & Administrator, location guide, and volunteer project introduction for your information. We would be really keen to receive applications from any interested NARPO Members, to register their interest they can contact: LegionLinks@britishlegion.org.uk.
If you have any questions or concerns please do let me know. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes,
Kirsty Gates
