I am a membership recruiter for the Worcestershire wildlife trust. My job is togo out every evening and knock on peoples doors in the Worcester area, i then ask them to consider becoming a member of the Worcestershire wildlife trust through a booklet that i leave for them to have a look out. This a great soft approach, the members of the public who i speak to really like this approach. I then go back the following evening to see if they want to become a member. I plan my own areas and this gives me great flexibility to approach my work. I talk about various aspects of wildlife and about the Worcestershire wildlife trust whenever questions are asked. I also discuss how they can become a volunteer for the Worcestershire wildlife trust and get involved at their local reserves or with their local groups. I am extremely dedicated and i am very proud to represent the Worcestershire wildlife trust. If you are interested in becoming a member of the Worcestershire wildlife trust or would like to know how you can get involved through volunteering please don't hesitate to contact me on 01905773313 or you can email me through this blog or you can email me directly on andrewparkes1974@hotmail.co.uk
