The
Volunteer Centre understands that people have many demands on
their time and feel unsure about making a regular commitment to
volunteering, as well as the emotional investment it may
require.
Joining
the
i
flexiteer Time Team provides the perfect opportunity to
volunteer by taking part in a one off activity, making a
difference and then moving on to another task.
i
flexiteers will experience all the rewards of volunteering,
knowing that they are adding value to the West Berkshire
community, but receiving:
Certificates for volunteer hours undertaken
Invitation to an annual celebration
Monthly flexiteer bulletin with new opportunities
Text/email alerts
Invitations to flexiteer coffee club meetings
flexiteer photo id cards
Invitations to get involved with online social networking
Once
registered as a Time Team member, the Volunteer Centre will keep
you informed when local charities, voluntary and community
groups tell us they have a requirement for the help of a
flexiteer. This will mean that as a flexiteer, you will have the
freedom to choose which activities you would like to get
involved with suiting your interests, skills and time
available, but the decision to get involved or not is entirely
yours.

Caroline ... runs
her own business and says The i
flexiteer Time Team is a fantastic idea, because it
will enable me to engage with volunteering in a way that
doesnt require me to make a regular commitment that I
will be unable to sustain. Now I have registered, I am
looking forward to getting involved with opportunities
that help others by using my business skills, or perhaps
doing something completely different! |

you could get involved with:
