Dear John
Have you found the role you love yet?
Whether you’re completely new to the movement or have volunteered with us before and want to become more involved or change direction, there’s a role to suit your skills.
On our Volunteer website you’ll find opportunities to work behind the scenes for just a few hours a week, or as much as you can manage. They’re mostly on a UK-wide, national or regional level, and nearly all can be done from home with Zoom meetings. Whichever you choose, you’ll have a vital effect on our movement.
Here are some examples (check out the website to see many others!):

Individual fundraising is the power behind XR!

2. Join a community group

If you’re not sure what would suit you best or are new and would like a solid introduction to XR and how everything fits together, we now run a 4 week Foundation Programme to do just that. Follow the links below:
Full length foundation programme (prepare for your ideal role) 7 hours/week
