We are a big organisation - and we rely on volunteers
The Society is held together by our many dedicated volunteers, including:- our Management Committee, various Sub-Committees, Appointed Positions, our team of Library Assistants and many others working behind the scenes... from typing and proof-reading each edition of the Western Ancestor, to checking book loans to members.
Any correspondence to Office Bearers etc. should be sent to the Secretary by Email: WAGS Secretary
If you feel that you are able to assist in taking up a position in the WAGS team, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator to make further enquiries.
