PLANNING AID VOLUNTEER APPLICATION FORM

   
 

Planning Aid provides a vital service for disadvantaged individuals and communities across the country and our volunteers are at the very heart of this work. As our service expands we need even more support. We are particularly keen to recruit volunteers who are Corporate or Licentiate members of the RTPI and we are looking for volunteers to commit to getting involved in three or more volunteering activities per year. If you would like to become an active volunteer for Planning Aid, please complete and submit the following application form. We will be in touch shortly to process your application and to hopefully welcome you on board.
