Postholders

The Guild relies on volunteers to fill all the various posts it needs to run day-to-day operations. In addition, it needs volunteers for new projects that the Guild would like to undertake for its members, and also to provide occasional assistance such as at Seminars, Conferences, and Family History Fairs.

The Guild is always seeking additional volunteers from its membership. If you are a Guild member, please let us know if you can find time to help run your Guild.

If you would like to help – and especially if you have any special skills that you feel would be useful to the Guild – please tell us by contacting the Volunteers Coordinator or any Trustee, or by telephoning the Guild HelpDesk. Members should refer to the Volunteering Opportunities page for specific opportunities but inquiries about any posts that interest you are welcome.

Members who are logged in will be able to see a list of the Guild’s current postholders below.
