Go Tri Month – Volunteers needed!
The Club is planning a Go Tri month this year (probably around May). This is not because we are lacking new members – it is because our membership is disproportionately white and male (we love you too though!), so not really what Windrush is about: a diverse and inclusive club routed firmly in the community.
To address this imbalance we are trying to host a Go Tri month, which will be aimed to attract new members from a more diverse background. This will primarily be by approaching groups directly and lowering some of the real and perceived entry thresholds which may hold people back in trying a bit of tri.
To get this off the ground, we need volunteers : ) Tasks will involve developing the promotion strategy, graphic design, contacting community groups, working out FAQ, scheduling and venues, clarifying insurance and other things. The idea is to set up an organising group which can start now, leaving plenty of time to sort things out over the next few month, so shouldn’t be too stressful. If you would like to develop your team working/social media/organisational skills or just want to give something back to the club, please drop us a line!
Many thanks!
