<strong>Wolverhampton</strong>’s Young Members<br />
Young Members, Your<br />
Branch Needs You!<br />
At the <strong>Wolverhampton</strong> branch AGM in<br />
November, Helen Arkell stepped down as<br />
the branch young member’s contact leaving<br />
the position vacant. We are now looking <strong>for</strong><br />
a volunteer to take the role on. Could this<br />
be you?<br />
What does the role involve?<br />
To provide a contact <strong>for</strong> and to help activate<br />
young members in the branch area.<br />
To liase with the branch committee and<br />
attend or provide a report <strong>for</strong> branch<br />
committee meetings.<br />
Communicate with young members utilising<br />
social media sites and also the branch<br />
website and newsletter.<br />
Promote branch events and run social events<br />
<strong>for</strong> young members such as a working social<br />
at the branch beer festival and attending<br />
others within the region<br />
and nationally.<br />
Who can do this? Anyone who is a CAMRA<br />
member but it is preferable that a young<br />
member (under 30) does this role. Previous<br />
Branch Young Members Contacts have<br />
gone on to hold positions on the National<br />
Young Members Group Committee and been<br />
Regional Young Members Coordinator. This<br />
is a great chance to develop skills useful in the<br />
work place and a way to meet new like<br />
minded friends<br />
across the branch<br />
area, region<br />
and nationally.<br />
If you need<br />
any more<br />
in<strong>for</strong>mation<br />
Some of our young members on<br />
a recent pub crawl.<br />
about what the role entails or have any<br />
questions, contact Paul Smith (West Midlands<br />
CAMRA Regional Young Members<br />
Coordinator) or any <strong>Wolverhampton</strong><br />
committee member <strong>for</strong> more details.<br />
Alternatively, come along to one of our<br />
socials where you will be made more than<br />
welcome!<br />
Did you know that........<br />
James Herriott was the pen name of<br />
author and veterinary surgeon James<br />
Alfred “Alf” White. Professional<br />
etiquette frowned upon vets from<br />
advertising their services by using<br />
their real name in print. James, or<br />
‘Jim’ Herriott was actually the name<br />
of Birmingham City football club’s<br />
goalkeeper.<br />
