Below is a template email to be sent to new volunteers with a Branch Connection, from the Branch Chair.
New volunteers will have received an email from their recruitment manager explaining what the Branch Connection is, with a link to further information.
If your branch has a physical location, a dedicated phone number or any other relevant local information please do add this to the email.
