What we're looking for
We're looking for an enthusiastic, creative and organised person local to Swindon to lead our Festival of Trees event over the festive season. Around 90 per cent of our income comes from our community supporters and we couldn't continue doing what we do without them. That means, our community fundraising volunteers play a really important part in rallying people together to raise vital funds which help to protect children and prevent abuse.
What you'll do
You'll volunteer around your other commitments to steer our Christmas Festival of Trees event, to coordinate the event activity and engage with other volunteers, partners and the public to make the event a success for the community to enjoy and promoting a positive image of the NSPCC! You'll be a valued part of our Volunteer Community Fundraising Team in Swindon, raising awareness and funds. We appreciate that work, family and friends come first and, with that in mind, this role offers flexibility to fit in with your lifestyle. You only need to commit between August and January, a few hours a week.
What you'll get
We'll support you with advice, skills and tools to help you fundraise and spread the word of the NSPCC. You'll learn more about how you're helping to protect children across the UK, and you'll have the opportunity to grow your skills and inspire others to support us. It's also a chance to spend time with like-minded people and make new friends.
The event is already well established and currently housed at the Wyvern Theatre, you'll have a guide to follow, a list of contacts and support from your local Fundraising Manager. We are hoping someone can put their own spin on this event to further its success.
Who's right for the role?
While we think this role is suitable for someone with event management experience or someone looking to work towards a career in event management and needing to gain experience - we are particularly looking for those with the following qualities:
- Passionate about helping young people and children
- Enthusiastic and personable
- Strong organisational skills
- Able to think on your feet
- You work well within a team
- Great communication and social skills
Interested in getting involved? Volunteer today and join our fight for every childhood.
