Westminster Ambassadors

Team Westminster Ambassadors

I joined the friendly group of volunteers, the Team Westminster Ambassadors, as a friend suggested that we should both sign up as an easy and fun way to get move involved with the community, but without the burdening pressure of other such projects that run during the week.

The idea behind the project is that; The Ambassadors act as on-the-ground eyes and ears, while being a friendly face to welcome visitors and occasionally lending a helping hand at large sporting, cultural and ceremonial events, as well as small-scale charity and community gatherings or walks. Meet people from all walks of life and showcase the best of the city, while having fun and making a valuable contribution to their own community.

Therefore if you live in Westminster then check it out as the the requirements a very relaxed. What’s more, your support will earn you a free lunch.
