Current volunteering opportunities:
There are lots of interesting ways to get involved in a Read Easy group. At the moment we are particularly looking to fill the following roles:
- Fundraiser: Use your tenacity and creativity to raise funds to ensure the group's running expenses are covered, so that more people can learn to read! If you are motivated by sales or business development, or live for the "thrill of the deal" then becoming a 'Read Easy Fundraiser will appeal to you. You must enjoy networking and be comfortable discussing finances to be suitable for this role, not to mention passionate, enthusiastic and committed to the cause! Fundraising is an ongoing activity throughout the year. However, it is a role that can easily be supported by other members of the team, and this is common practice. There are two distinct forms of fundraising – those requiring writing bids for funds and those with a more social aspect – sponsored events; cake and coffee mornings; quiz nights; etc. The time commitment will be dependent on the nature of the fundraising your group does, and how many others become involved. As a Management Team member, you will also be required to attend monthly/regular Management Team meetings which may be a combination of Zoom and face to face.
If there is a role listed here that would suit you, please contact the volunteer listed above or complete a form using the ‘Enquire now’ button. If there are no suitable vacancies listed at the moment, you can still get in touch if you would like to, and we can keep a note of your interest, if you are happy for us to keep your details.
