*BASICS Essex*
Are currently on the hunt for non-clinical volunteers to help with raising the profile of the charity, fundraising and social media. In return they can offer clinical observer shifts, letters / certificates and access to our Clinical Governance meetings / training days. This is a remote role with an expected time comittment of 2 hours per week, but will be highly variable. They have no limitation in the amount of observer shifts volunteers can do. Additionally, this year they also hope to start offering first aid courses. The team would love it if we could provide anyone who was keen to be involved in this. They can also offer some 5th years some internal elective oppourtunities
