DISTRIBUTION TEAMOne of the most vital roles our volunteers can play in our group. It's an weekly early 7am on a Friday morning, but the aim will be to copy almost 200 audio cassettes on a mass copy plant, insert cassettes into our special postal plastic wallets before insuring their delivery to Brentwoods Postal sorting office by 9.30am. If your worried about the early start, our present volunteers tell us they like the eary start as it means they can do the shops nice and early before the crowds. |
