Community Fundraising Volunteer
Hosted by: St John Ambulance
Opportunity Description: Have you got enthusiasm by the bucket load and people skills to spare?
As part of a fundraising team you could be involved in bucket collections, table top sales, distributing our static collecting tins or even cheering on our amazing runners.
You might even want to organise you own fundraising, maybe a Quiz night or a bake sale. You can be as creative as you.
Every pound you raise will support our amazing volunteers to keep people safe at events. Along the way you’ll gain new friends while giving something back to your community. Get out and about while learning new skills and why not, flex your existing ones, all the while being fully supported by the rest of your team and with flexible working.
Your talents and skills could be making a real difference and you could be helping to Save a Life without having to pick up a First Aid kit.
