By helping with event logistics, transportation, and equipment management, you will play an essential role in enabling our fundraising teams and volunteers to deliver successful events for our supporters.

Your support helps ensure that the right equipment is in the right place at the right time, allowing events to run smoothly and safely.

• A full UK driving licence (if undertaking driving duties).
• A positive team player with a flexible and adaptable approach.

Physical Requirements

• Standing and walking for extended periods.
• Lifting, carrying, loading, and unloading equipment and supplies.

We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and abilities and are committed to creating inclusive volunteering opportunities. Where possible, we will work with volunteers to identify reasonable adjustments that enable them to undertake the essential activities of the role.

Benefits

Event volunteering opportunities are flexible and available throughout the year. Volunteers can choose to support individual events based on their interests and availability.
