Why Volunteer
I have been an active RPS member for nearly 19 years and it is not long ago that I decided to be a volunteer for the Society. I was the Region’s Treasurer for about five years before taking on the role as Regional Organiser in October 2020. Earlier this year I was also appointed as a Distinctions Licentiate Panel Member. This has been a rewarding opportunity for me, I owe a big thank you to the RPS for giving me this extraordinary opportunity. Through my years as a volunteer, I have met like-minded people who are extremely passionate about photography either as their profession or as a hobby. It has been an interesting and a rewarding journey for me. I would like to thank the Southern Region Committee Members for being an outstanding supportive team. (Bhupinder Ghatahora)
