Volunteering
We are always looking for volunteers to join our team and help maintain the infrastructure of the West Island Way. It can be hard work and sometimes in all weathers but it’s a good laugh and very fulfilling when the jobs are done….
If you’d like to help out please fill out the form below and we will contact you…
