Volunteer Opportunities
Over the years we have had many volunteers outside of the officers and council members volunteering their time for our region. This year yet again we have Daniele Rigamonti TMRF working on our PR Team (website ) and Josephine Cairns TCRG working on the Professional Development Team.
If you have experience in any of those fields and wish to volunteer, please get in contact. Our next council meeting will be May 25th. If you have any questions, ideas or concerns please use our chain of command, write to your local rep or myself as Chair either to my personal email or to our RCCEA email rccea.secretary@gmail.com
