Community Volunteers

• VO100823

Do you want to join our movement and defend the right to a safe home? We’re looking for volunteers who can join us at events in the community to help us raise money and raise awareness! This is a highly flexible role. We’ll let you know about upcoming events, and you choose which you’d like to attend or do. The housing emergency hurts everyone. The fight to end it starts here!

This is a flexible and diverse role. Here are some of the activities you might get involved in:

• Support some of our community fundraising activity such as holding collection tins in public spaces or bag packing in supermarkets.
• Volunteer at a range of events including community fairs, gigs, Pride marches, sporting events and street stalls.

This is a flexible, ad hoc role, volunteer at our events when it suits you.

A fantastic opportunity to help with a well recognised charity and make a real difference for people and the community. All help is greatly appreciated.

For more information please contact Fay McLeod, Regional Community Fundraiser at email fay_mcleod@shelter.org.uk or telephone: 07825 655865.
