Most of BAPAM’s services are provided by volunteers, and there are many ways you can get involved. Get in touch! Call us on 020 7404 5888 or email clare@bapam.org.uk
- Clinics: If you are a medical doctor (in particular, a GP, sports medicine specialist, occupational health doctor, rheumatologist or orthopaedic surgeon) or an MMACP physiotherapist, you may want to run a BAPAM clinic.
- Orchestra Doctor: Medical doctors can have their ‘own’ orchestra to look after by becoming an AMABO doctor (Association of Medical Advisors to British Orchestras)
- Fundraising: Organise a fundraising event in support of BAPAM If you are a keen fundraiser or events organiser, we are always happy for you to help us generate income!
- Admin Support: We greatly value both regular support and occasional help in typing, envelope stuffing etc
- Marketing: We need to get our message out to performers and health professionals – if you have marketing or PR skills and a willingness to muck in with the practical side of things, we can find you a ‘job’
- Performers: Want to arrange a gig or event in aid of BAPAM? How else can performers help BAPAM? Tell your friends about us! Most people find out about us from a friend or colleague, and we can provide leaflets, warm-up cards, posters and other material suitable for display in colleges, venues, rehearsal spaces etc.
