RMS Ambassadors help raise our profile and promote our activities.
Ambassadors raise awareness of RMS activities, support local members and encourage new members. From putting up posters which advertise our meetings and courses to promoting specific activities via emails or other suitable routes, there are many ways you could help the RMS.
To complete this application please provide the following information for your website profile:
Display contact details (including profile picture) on the RMS website
Attend compulsory training sessions (which are part of the training) and annual meetings (preferably in person but those who can’t attend in person should attend online)
Carry out at least 1 - 3 activities per year (with an emphasis on outreach activities) – some suggestions can be found below
Provide post-event reports
Provide an annual feedback report
Appropriate use of resources provided by the RMS

Discuss with a member of the RMS team before carrying out an outreach activity.
Ensure appropriate content for presentation(s) that are delivered (ask if not sure – RMS will provide content and resources)
Share upcoming events/opportunities on social media
Circulate upcoming events/opportunities within institute
Deliver short presentation at events such as at symposiums, conferences, meetings (lab meetings etc.), new cohort of PhD students
Stands at events such as at the Freshers week/Uni open days – this is very useful for undergraduate ambassadors
