 The CREST Team have a wealth of knowledge, a good sense of humour and are team players. We welcome all volunteers of all walks of life and are disability friendly. We value volunteers as they are the back bone of all Charities and we could not do the work without them. We have regular volunteer meetings over a cup of coffee and a bacon roll.

 

What skills do I need?

Basic office skills, including a knowledge of Word and Excel. Good oral and written communication are important, as you will be dealing with sensitive information, so tact and discretion are required.
