The club has a volunteer workforce of 11 adults and 16 ‘mini’ volunteers aged between two and 13, who support and help out with both committee and non-committee roles. Committee roles include the chair, club secretary and treasurer, while non-committee roles vary from meet-and-greet volunteers, event support, setting out activities to the design of sustainable medals.
As a not-for-profit club, they rely heavily on fundraising, another role which all volunteers are tasked with. To do this they’ve participated in local quiz nights, organised and took part in a 24-hour relay and joined local carnivals and fetes.
Jason credits much of the club’s success to the team of volunteers who make everything possible. “Without the regular commitment of volunteers, the club would not have been as successful,” he says.
