Help make community arts and cultural projects possible by supporting real funding applications that directly enable events, workshops, and learning programmes.

We’re looking for a volunteer to support the preparation and submission of funding applications for community, arts, and cultural initiatives. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working with documents, forms, and deadlines, and wants their work to have a clear, practical impact.

You’ll help keep funding bids organised and on track by completing application forms using provided project information, preparing and uploading supporting documents, and checking that submissions meet funder guidelines and eligibility criteria. You’ll also help track deadlines, maintain a simple record of applications and outcomes, and flag any missing information or compliance requirements.

The role is flexible and can be adapted around other commitments. Some remote work is possible, with occasional on-site involvement during events. This is a great opportunity to build experience, apply existing skills, and be part of a creative, community-focused organisation.
