Amin
My name is Amin and I have been part of the Erskine Events and Fundraising Team for seven years and I feel proud and privileged to be associated with Erskine, our Cadets and our Armed Forces.
I am ex-RAF and became an Erskine Volunteer in order to offer my gratitude and repay my debt to our Veterans and serving Army, Navy and Air Force personnel. Being part of Erskine is a very rewarding and unique experience and the respect and the generosity and that smile from the public on fundraising events is truly memorable and touching.
Wear you Erskine ID badge with pride. I do and it opens doors for me and it definitely is a gold star on your CV when you're applying for a job. You'll stand out above all others. You'll represent all that is good.
If you're thinking about volunteering - go to it and do it. Be a hero for our heroes. Do it for them - do it for you! You will gain confidence, friendships and respect and you'll be part of a winning team!
