Our Volunteers
Paul Wise
Paul sits on our Voluntary Fundraising Committee and also supports at our Veterans’ Hub and occasional matchdays at the EBB Stadium. Paul first got involved with us as an attendee at our Veterans outreach events, as he is a former Royal Marine. Over time, he has grown to become more involved and come to be one of our valued volunteers.
Paul volunteers because “It has given me a genuine sense of purpose and connection. It’s allowed me to get out and about, spending time with people who share the same passion for our community… Volunteering has helped me feel more confident and engaged, and knowing that my time and effort are appreciated motivates me to keep giving my best.
Paula Denmark
Paula has been volunteering with us for almost a year now. She got involved with us and the football club after taking part in the Poppy Appeal with the Royal British Legion and being blown away with the support our fanbase gave. Not only does Paula help run our matchday experience, but she has made shots-themed bracelets that have raised over £350 for us at the Shots Foundation.
Paula says, “I have been made to feel so welcome by everyone and feel very appreciated by Jamie and the rest of the staff and trustees. The Shots Foundation does amazing work in the local community so if you have time to give, then consider joining us! You don’t have to be a fan of the Shots, but I guarantee if you aren’t, you soon will be!”
