AVM is an innovative and forward-thinking organisation, and we’d love to chat to you if you want to volunteer with us in any way.

The success of AVM is dependent on the support of our volunteers, and there are countless ways you can be part of this. Whether you’re looking to help out “here and there”, supporting or running a project, or playing an active role in shaping our future, roles are very much shaped around your skills and interests, and the level of time and energy that you’re looking to put in.

To give an indication of how you might wish to get involved, we’ve shown our key focus areas below. We’re very open to suggestions however, so please don’t let this restrict your thinking. We want you to feel as valued as we are grateful for your support – it’s for you to decide where and when to get involved.

We also have the following volunteering opportunities:

If you’d like to find out more about any of the roles listed above or one of our key focus areas listed below, please complete the online enquiry form below, and we’ll get in touch for a chat.

I love being involved in something really important
