Are you looking for a challenging volunteer role?
We are looking for people to help with fundraising areas for a local to Worthing and Shoreham charity, mainly work from home but we'll be able to help with guidance and training.
This could be to help with ideas to raise funds, attend car boot sales and more.
The country is looking to get back to normal in the summer of 2022 and we hope to have local stalls selling disabled equipment and increasing our awareness at car boot sales, exhibitions, popup stands in town centres and more....
With experience, this could eventually turn into a new career for the right person.
Do get in touch and we'll arrange a convenient time to discuss this further.
Potential to earn commission on all funds raised.
