We are always looking for volunteers to work on our projects and help run the Trust. It's a great way to meet new people and get involved in the community.
If you have some free time, and would like to join us working on any of the projects below we'll be happy to see you.
We require all volunteers to apply for PVG membership. More information is available about the PVG scheme from the mygov.scot (Scottish Government) website.

Volunteering opportunities
Community Trust volunteers
Joining the Trust is free; members are asked to help form the management committee, support to values and work of the Trust and attend the Annual General Meeting. You can get involved with as many of our projects as you want to. We also welcome volunteers who choose not to join the Trust but nonetheless give their time and energy to our projects.
We are looking for help with:
- organising our meetings (every 3 months)
- fund raising
- funding applications
- administrating the Trust
- identifying community projects
- liaising with our partners (other community groups, the Aberdeenshire Council and funders)
