As a fundraising volunteer you will play a vital part, assisting with fundraising activities such as bucket collections, open days and cake sales, the proceeds of which will go directly towards our vital animal welfare work. This is a very flexible role with no regular commitments required.
This is a great opportunity to help our animal centres and gain some valuable fundraising experience. No prior fundraising experience is required - you will be supported in your role by an experienced member of staff who will provide you with all the knowledge and training you will need around fundraising from your first steps to policies that govern our fundraising activities.
We are the RSPCA and it's our vision to live in a world where all animals are respected and treated with compassion. Our volunteers are incredible, they play an essential role in helping us carry out our important animal welfare work every day.
