Volunteer with WAMES – Could you be the missing piece?

WAMES is a charity run solely by volunteers who wish to ‘make a difference for ME‘ in Wales.

We invite you to share your skills, experiences, ideas and enthusiasm with our Teams – in small or big ways – over weeks, months or years – in ways and at times that are suitable for you.

Communications Team

Welsh language – we currently have no native Welsh speakers on the team and we wish to make all our outreach more relevant to the ME community in Wales.

Social Media – We want to build on our active Facebook and Twitter presence and reach more people with our new Instagram account. Help us create content and manage the accounts.

Websites – our 2 WordPress websites and blogs need an overhaul, new direction and content to meet the changing environment we live in!

E-newsletter – we want to develop our e-communications with the ME community.

Fundraising Team

Help us identify & tap into a variety of fundraising methods such as online, corporate.

Administration Team

Support the secretary to run the organisation, develop a remote office or maintain records, memberships and policies.

Campaigns & Awareness Team

We need your specialised knowledge to help us make better use of surveys, polls, research and metrics when presenting the case for better services in Wales for people with ME.

Trustees

Join us as a trustee and help us plan the future work of WAMES, meet all legal requirements and ensure we stay on track.

Find out more about how we think you can get involved or make other suggestions – email Sharon sharon@wames.org.uk and arrange to have a chat.

Please note:

• Training can be arranged & expenses will be paid
• Online access will be necessary for most tasks but we may be able to provide some help with that
• To allow for fluctuating health and commitments we aim to structure  tasks so they can be done as a ‘role share’ or as part of a team.
