Speaker volunteer
Help raise the profile of our lifesaving charity
North West Air Ambulance Charity is often invited to attend community groups, organisations, and clubs to talk about our lifesaving service. Our volunteer speakers support us in raising our profile, and ensure people across the North West understand the impact our service has.
One day you may be attending a cheque presentation with a local club, and the next delivering a presentation to thirty business people. If you are a confident speaker and enjoy meeting people from all walks of life, this could be the role for you.
If you have any questions or would like to find out more, please email volunteer@nwairambulance.org.uk or call our head office on 0800 587 4570.
