Join the Gordon Friends of CHAS in Ellon
Make a difference, meet great people, and have fun — all on your terms.
Are you passionate about helping others but juggling a busy schedule? We get it. That’s why we’re looking for friendly, enthusiastic locals in Ellon to join our CHAS Fundraising Group - no long-term commitment, just come along help at events when you can spare the time.
Why we want you
Fundraising groups are the local face of CHAS in the community. We are looking for volunteers to join our fundraising groups across Scotland. The groups plan and deliver events and activities in the local community to raise vital funds for CHAS.
The aim of the role is to work within a group to plan and deliver fundraising events to raise money to support children with a life-shortening condition across Scotland.
What you will be doing
Planning, organising and promoting fundraising events and collections with other group members
Representing CHAS at community events and raising awareness
Banking money raised and potentially keeping the records of the group’s accounts
Acting as an ambassador for CHAS by building community networks
Attending group meetings
Why it matters
Every pound you help raise goes directly to supporting children and families across Scotland. You’ll be part of something truly special — bringing hope, smiles, and support when it’s needed most.
Everyone’s welcome
CHAS is proud to be inclusive and diverse. We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds — including refugees, asylum seekers, benefit claimants, and those with disabilities. If you need any adjustments to make volunteering easier, just let us know.
