Description

4 Guides needed to direct attendees of our 10th Annual PPI Summer School. The PPI Summer School is set to be held in the Kemmy Business School. The Summer School is aimed at PPI contributors, researchers, medical practitioners, patients, community stakeholders, and more. 

Our attendees often have mobility issues and/or other disabilities that may make it challenging for them to get around, so this year we would like to have volunteers on site during registration, breaks, and our BBQ to guide attendees in the right direction and add to our accessibility for this event.
