About the Role:
As a Community Fundraising Organiser, you will be responsible to putting on a minimum of two events in your local area to help raise awareness and funds for the crucial work we do at the NSPCC.
You can use your personal passions and interests to set up any event that interests you (within reason). This could be a challenge event – like a sunrise walk, a monthly club – like a running or book club or anything else. The flexibility is really there – if you are struggling with ideas, a Community Fundraising Manager will be there to help you along the way!
This role offers a unique opportunity to turn your passion or interest into something that helps fund the fight to end cruelty to children.
Main Duties and Responsibilities:
- Organize and manage fundraising events in your local area, such as charity challenges, social clubs, or awareness campaigns.
- Use your creativity to design events that engage your community and align with your personal interests, whether it's a sunrise walk, a running or book club, or any other fun and impactful activity.
- Promote NSPCC's mission and work, educating your community on the importance of protecting children and supporting the fight to end cruelty to children.
- Collaborate with the NSPCC fundraising team for guidance, resources, and support to ensure your event's success.
- Foster relationships within your local community to encourage long-term support for NSPCC's cause.
Skills & Qualifications:
While no specific qualifications are required, the following skills and attributes will help you succeed in this role:
- Passion for the Cause: A genuine interest in the NSPCC's mission to end cruelty to children and a commitment to raising awareness in your community.
- Event Planning and Organization: Ability to plan, coordinate, and manage community events, ensuring they run smoothly and are enjoyable for participants.
- Communication Skills: Strong verbal and written communication skills to promote your events, engage with potential participants, and build relationships with local supporters.
- Creativity: A willingness to think outside the box and come up with fun and innovative fundraising ideas that will attract attention and inspire others to get involved.
- Leadership and Teamwork: Ability to lead your own projects while working collaboratively with the NSPCC team and local supporters.
- Time Management: Effective time management skills to balance your volunteering responsibilities with other commitments and ensure deadlines are met.
- Adaptability: Flexibility to handle various tasks and adapt to changes or challenges that may arise during the planning or execution of events.
- Basic Marketing and Promotion: Familiarity with social media or other promotional methods to spread the word about your events and drive participation.
Previous fundraising or volunteer experience is helpful but not essential. Most importantly, a passion for making a difference in the lives of children is key to success in this role.
Benefits
- A unique opportunity to turn your passions into meaningful fundraising efforts that help protect children.
- Flexible role with opportunities to meet new people and engage with local businesses and communities.
- Personal growth through organizing and leading events, gaining valuable skills in project management, communication, and community engagement.
- Training and support from the NSPCC team.
- Be part of a dedicated and passionate team working to make a difference in children's lives.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a charity at the very start and to make a difference in shaping how we move forward.
Who are we looking for?
At present we are working towards being fully operational, over the next year Living Reasons will be looking to ensure that all of our operational activity, whether internally or with people who come in contact with the organisation, are having the best experience they can possibly have and that the work we are carrying out, the campaigns we are focusing on and where we are focusing our time and our money, is relevant and remains so moving forward.
That is where I lived experience board of volunteers comes in. In essence that lived experience board is the driver for all that we do as an organisation and will inform, guide and develop the organisation.
The board is broken in to separate lived experiences which hold focus groups, support groups and communicated with each other to talk about members lived experiences, support each other and feel part of a community, while also using the voice and power of that lived experience to bring about change. The board chooses what information is passed on to the organisation and what is not.
Additionally, to the community aspects of the role, you will also be sent specific materials to share your experiences or take part in research or in new policy discussions or campaign ideas as the organisation evolves.
Additionally, to the specific lived experience groups, the full board can communicate with each other and will have periodic full board meetings that will allow people to share their experiences from various viewpoints, so that cross overs and shared experiences can become strength but can also guide the overall operation of Living Reasons.
For this role, all you need is to have lived experience of mental health conditions, either from a personal viewpoint, or as a supporter/care giver/guardian/family member. There will be two separate groups (one for personal experience and people who are supporting someone – this allows for different conversations to happen).
This role will really drive change, not just in Living Reasons as an organisation, but in society as a whole.
What is the plan?
The person who is starting the charity up is autistic, has ADHD, CPTSD and also multiple physical conditions that effect daily life and is part of the LGBTQ+ community and has faced a lot of issues in life because of these things.
