Why Volunteer
I first came into contact with the RPS when labouring over my LRPS attempt and realised how much I had learned as a consequence of the distinction process and that it would be "cool" to become involved with the organisation. I found the aims of the RPS compatible with my own photographic aspirations and that the people I met during RPS events were enthusiastic and helpful in equal measure. I learned that the RPS cannot exist in its present form without a small army of volunteers making it work so I became a "foot soldier" as a member of the Southern Region Committee. My advice to anyone considering volunteering is - go for it; you will meet some great people and be making one of the premier photography societies continue.
