Our Volunteer Charity Hub Team
We also have a new charity hub opening in the new year. In this space, we will be recruiting a team of volunteers to assist with linking all visitors to the relevant NHSTCF team members or providing information about the charity, fundraising, donations, funding programmes and promoting our work. The role will also involve assisting with the booking system for the space, taking phone calls and supporting the staff team with the day-to-day running of the hub operation.
Our Volunteer Fundraising Team
We are looking to grow a team of volunteers to assist us with our programme of fundraising events throughout the year that people can come along and get involved with. The fundraising events can range from bake sales to marathons, cycle events, charity galas and auctions. If you have experience in participating in or organising fundraising events, the charity and the team can benefit from your experience. The funds raised through this team will 100% go to the charity and support the work of NHSTCF
