Signing Champion – Dundee and Angus
(ref: SGR079)
Signing Champions help to maintain an overview of local signing and coordinate volunteer signing of the National Cycle Network within your group’s area. They work alongside Rangers, Sustrans staff and local authorities.
Signing Champions must be systematic and have an eye for detail. They are responsible for coordinating the group’s signing, ensuring routes are signed to the highest standard possible, and that signs are visible, in good condition and clear of vegetation and graffiti.
You will help to:
- Maintain an overview of signing needs in the area
- Develop links with other signing authorities to ensure that permanent signing is as good as possible
- Help to ensure that all rangers understand how to systematically sign their routes
- Ensure that any gaps in signing due to inactive rangers are covered by other members of the group
- Ensure that signing along routes is inspected regularly
- Maintain good stocks of temporary signs for use by the group
Training will be available through liaison with Simon Phillips, Sustrans’ signing expert, and there will be the opportunity to work with signing champions from other Volunteer groups in Scotland.
For more information contact your local Volunteer Coordinator, Derek Mullins on 0131 346 9789 or email volunteers-scotland@sustrans.org.uk.
