Wokingham in Need (WIN) is dedicated to providing support for the homeless and most vulnerable in our community.
We are seeking an Events Fundraiser to join the team. We do not have our own office space so the volunteer would need to be happy to work from home but will be supported by the Trustees and other volunteer members.
All necessary expenses for this role will be paid. We are looking for an enthusiastic organised team player with lots of ideas who ideally has experience in event planning but not essential.
At the moment, the Charity hosts one larger event annually and organises stalls at local events to raise awareness of the Charity’s work and raise valuable funds.
Time commitment would be approximately 3 hours approximately a week, maybe more coming up to an event and post-event.
The role does require a DBS check and will report through to the Founder and Trustee.
Cianna’s Smile offers support and education to families affected by Sickle Cell Anaemia in the UK.
Our goals are to decrease isolation for those living with Sickle Cell, support families, and raise awareness of Sickle Cell in the UK.
They have recently opened new offices in Wokingham Town Centre.
This move and expansion means they are looking to take on more volunteers. These include a Social Media Coordinator, a Fundraiser, a Treasurer, an Administrator and a Volunteer Coordinator.
This is great opportunity to dive into a variety of tasks and to help a great cause without having to commit to a regular day and time each week.
If any of these roles appeal to you, please get in touch.
