This is an exciting opportunity for someone to give back to the community, leading our design and creation of events and so add value to the lives and wellbeing of people of all ages within Kew. Our areas of interest include green spaces, environment, planning decisions and perhaps most importantly connecting our community (34% of residents in Kew, of all ages, live on their own). The role would, for example, suit a stay-at-home parent, who has free time during school hours, or an early retiree who is keen to maintain their workplace skills and gain wider experience. We can offer a supportive, enjoyable and social environment to work in.
