celebrating international volunteer day 2024 with our society champions
december 5, 2024
5 december 2024 is international volunteer day and it’s a great opportunity for us to highlight why 英格兰vs美国谁会赢？ volunteers have decided to become champions and have generously given their time to promote microbiology and the society in their local areas.
this year, we want to show appreciation to champions who contribute to the society in many different ways. they have attended events on our behalf; organised their own events; taken part in interviews and written blogs. they have also played a vital role in the society’s focus on equality, diversity and inclusion by providing content for awareness days and organising social events for members of our community from historically marginalised groups.
below, you can find out more about why two of our champions decided to join the scheme and what they get out of it. -
