What can you do?
Translate into your language... Would you like to make a Barefoot Guide available to a whole new audience? If you have experience of translating and would be willing to work on a translation of one of the Barefoot Guides, either alone or as a group, we need you!
Edit... Are you good at spotting spelling and grammar mistakes, clunky or hard to understand language? Do you want to make the Barefoot Guides understandable – in English or another language – to the widest audience possible?
Website maintenance and development... Do you have IT skills and want to contribute to developing the Barefoot Guide connection community and keeping our website up-to-date, accessible and attractive?
Resource centre... Do you love surfing the net to find new resources and sharing them with like-minded people? You can help to keep our resource centre up-to-date and relevant.
Fundraising... can you write proposals? Do you have some innovative ideas for raising money? We’d like to hear from you.
Write... got an idea for a new Barefoot Guide or want to be involved in one that’s underway? (link to new BFG page) Writing a blog that you think is relevant and want to make the link – go to Write a Barefoot Guide
Volunteering procedure
We are a community of volunteers and we want as many people as possible to be involved in spreading the Barefoot Guide word and engaging with the big issues of social change. We want your volunteering experience to be a good one and hope that you’ll become a permanent member of our community. Here’s what you can expect:
Once you have decided what you are interested in and follow the link, you will be contacted by a member of the Core Team (all volunteers themselves) and linked with the person responsible for your area of interest. They will discuss with you how you can be involved and what that will entail in terms of time and commitment.
Once you’ve agreed what you will do, the Volunteer Coordinator will be informed and you will be put on our volunteer database. This means we will have a record of the work you’ve done (in case you need it for a reference for example). We may also contact you if we have work within your area of expertise that needs doing. Your contact details will not be shared with anyone without your permission and you can ask to be taken off the database at any time.
If you have any concerns, you can speak to me, the Volunteer Coordinator.
