Become a Guideposts Ambassador
Guideposts Ambassadors help Guideposts by offering continual support as their chosen charity of choice. They may support us in various ways, from shouting out to the wider community about our work, sharing our social media stories and putting great people and organisation in touch with fundraising.
It’s all about raising awareness, as well as fundraising for a good cause.
