In order for 4x4 Response Wales to effectively fulfil its role and provide a useful service to its various partners and clients it is essential that sufficient volunteers are recruited and trained. Although primarily the Group needs owner drivers of 4x4 vehicles there are also a number of other roles within the Group interesting opportunities for non vehicle owning/driving volunteers. Such roles include:

Navigation and Vehicle Crew

Regional co-ordination and control

Blue Light/EPO Liaison

Administration

Fundraising

Training and Assessment

If you are interested in getting involved with the Group and would like to help to provide help and support to the community in adverse weather and local emergencies then please get in touch to find how you can play a part in the development of the Group. Contact Us.
