Morning all, So, myself and Katie are moving on with a long-planned but yet to be delivered hand-out to support recruitment of members and volunteers for the chapter - and we'd value your input.
I've posted the following on the water cooler too - I've started a drafting page today (see here<http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Volunteer/Join_us_handout%7C>) to put together the content and ideas for a dual purpose handout the chapter can use to get expressions of interest from volunteers or potential members. You can all help massively by dropping by and adding a sentence or two about how either volunteering and membership has led to interesting experiences, projects, or other outcomes. Also, I'm happy for use to draft section content - what would YOU say to get people to get involved? There is no hard deadline on completing this, though I will probably be running around at the AGM session on writing the new members pack asking similar sorts of questions, so I would hope to see the first draft of that and this ready by the end of June! Ping me on talk page or email me if you have questions - happy to answer and listen to advice :-) * * *So - suggest away!* * * *Katherine Bavage * *Fundraising Manager * *Wikimedia UK* +44 20 7065 0752 Wikimedia UK is a Company Limited by Guarantee registered in England and Wales, Registered No. 6741827.
