We are particularly interested in hearing from people with public speaking experience, especially retired teachers or those who have worked with young people.
Volunteers will visit local schools during school hours to share stories of hope, justice and solidarity from communities around the world.
The role involves approximately 1-2 short talks per week during the four-month campaign period.
Full training, presentation materials and ongoing support will be provided.
Please contact Fionnuala McGuinness on 028 9080 8033 or fionnuala.mcguinness@trocaire.org by the first week of December if you are interested!
