Membership Recruitment
Our recruitment efforts over many years have seen steadily increasing membership numbers which is helping to raise more funds for FAST through membership subscriptions. We pride ourselves that this has been achieved without employing any paid staff, allowing us to use all financial receipts for further development of the museum, its exhibits and related projects. So a big thank you to all our members, both old and new for their continued loyalty and of course keep recruiting.
Celebrations and Commemorations
In June 2014 FAST received the Queens Award for Voluntary Service (QAVS) in recognition of the efforts of its volunteers supporting FAST. This award, the group equivalent of an MBE, came as a great honour to FASTA members.
With so much activity at FAST it has is never been a better time to join FASTA and share in the benefits and excitement.
