Fancy being our Events Officer? It has been a lot of fun organising these events for you, and we've already had requests and volunteers to run online events over Winter 2021/22. So we now have a role of 'Events Officer' up for grabs. If you fancy making our events happen, which includes liaising with potential speakers/workshop leaders, creating web pages, managing the bookings, emailing registrants and hosting the events, please email Pauline at president@morrisfed.org.uk<mailto:president@morrisfed.org.uk?subject=Events%20Officer%20Role> with info about your experience and what you could bring to the role. We need your video editing skills! We've been recording most of the online events, but it takes a lot of time to do a professional job on them to edit out all the little interruptions, and add the branding and credits. If you have some spare time and video editing skills and would like to help improve our videos for posterity, then please email Sally Smith, our Communications Officer, at communications@morrisfed.org.uk<mailto:communications@morrisfed.org.uk?subject=Video%20Editing> with info about your experience and how you could help.
