Treasurer

We exist to help people with sight loss live the life they choose. Over the years we’ve developed a wide range of services with and without dogs to support people living with a vision impairment. Children and adults. Friends and family. Whoever you are, our expert staff, dedicated volunteers and life-changing dogs are here to help people with sight loss live actively, independently, and well.
If you are someone with an interest in numbers and want to use your skills to support a charity, then this could be the perfect role for you!

In this number-crunching volunteer role, your support will include:
• Putting your calculator to use through totalling money being raised and spent.
• Supporting us in getting our all-important funds to our services, through banking the funds being raised.
• Maintaining accurate financial records for your fundraising group.
• Raising morale in team meetings through sharing the success of money being raised.

Experience required

You’ll ideally have:
• A passion for numbers or accountancy.
• Confidence in handling cash for Guide Dogs.
• Ability to use emails and spreadsheets to keep financial records up to date.

Travel expenses

Volunteering should never leave you out of pocket. We pay any expenses related to your volunteering with us, including travel costs.
