Volunteers

Volunteering with FHS

Fairlington is a community with many talented people who have very little spare time. We understand this, and we find that most people volunteer for a specific activity or for limited work on a particular project that interests them. Some volunteers have come to us with an idea or new activity that they believe will benefit the Society and the community.

Even if you have only a small amount of time to give, you will find good work to be done and some terrific people helping you do it
