ECHOES OF OZ NEEDS YOU!
There are lots of ways to get involved in Echoes Of Oz.
EMERALD CITIZENS: Invest your time on this project and be part of making it happen – and you get to be an ‘Emerald Citizen’ – you get an exclusive badge and a big thank you on our website HERE. There’s lots to do, and for most of it you don’t need any special skills or qualifications – but you could be on the inside of Dorothy’s House, the first to slide on the Ruby Slipper Slide, or step on the Yellow Brick Road…
AWARDS: Your chance to nominate a Bradford-based friend, colleague, community or group leader for a ‘Heart’, ‘Brains’ or ‘Courage’ Award – CLICK HERE.
