Action Champions provide flexible, task‑based support wherever it’s needed. There is no fixed time commitment - volunteers help when they can.
MEC aims to be greater than the sum of its parts, and the Action Volunteer role fits this perfectly. These volunteers support work across different teams, projects and events, stepping in where extra capacity or a helping hand makes the most difference.
Activities vary widely and may include practical outdoor tasks, supporting events or community activities, or assisting with small but important jobs that keep projects running smoothly. The opportunity suits people who enjoy variety and are happy to say, “I can help with that.”
Responsibilities depend entirely on the task at hand. Action Volunteers turn up, contribute to the best of their ability, and support the team to complete whatever is needed safely and effectively.
