Do you want to join our committee?
We are looking for new people to join our committee.
You would work with other volunteers and trustees who are part of the committee but ideally focus on one of the following as well as other areas you are interested in:
- Volunteer recruitment: You would work with an existing committee member to promote volunteering in the park, answer email enquiries from new volunteers and help other committee members put together rotas for events and activities.
- Bandstand concerts: You would plan logistics and co-ordinate our fantastic team of volunteers for our free fortnightly concerts which take place from July to October. There would be an opportunity to shadow an existing committee member in 2024 before potentially taking a lead in 2025.
- Paddling pool: You would work with other committee members to support fundraising, volunteering and partnership working with Lambeth Council to keep Ruskin Park’s much-loved paddling pool operating each summer.
There is flexibility to share roles between different people depending on skills and interests and to get involved in other activities. We’re also interested to hear from people who might be able to help at particular times but can’t commit to joining the committee.
“Volunteering for FoRP is a great way to get involved in my local community. I have made friends, learnt new skills, and I feel even more connected to our special park” – FoRP committee member.
