This is a brand new role to build and deliver a new internal communications plan to engage and promote best practice across our network of local charities, and bring about real change in how volunteers contribute to CPRE by engaging new external audiences.

We are at an exciting time in our development as a charity, with a new strategy, new brand and a fresh remit to increase our volunteering.
