Volunteers’ Week has arrived (1-7 June 2022) which means the Royal Statistics Society will celebrate its volunteers and the excellent work they do for the Society.
Volunteers’ Week is an annual celebration where the efforts and contributions that volunteers make to organisations and communities are recognised across the UK.
Here is a summary of some of the RSS volunteers’ achievements:
- We have more than 300 volunteers supporting various RSS committees and groups.
- These volunteers serve on 25 internal groups including the newly created Campaigns Advisory Group and Data Science Taskforce.
- Over 50 charity projects have been completed by volunteer statisticians through our Statisticians for Society initiative.
During the course of Volunteers' Week, we will be sharing other members' experiences of volunteering their time with the Society on Twitter. Follow the hashtag
#VolunteersWeek from 1 June to read about what other organisations are doing to celebrate their volunteers.
