Role Overview
Milestones Trust recently organized a hustings with the candidates of the Kingswood by-election, which was well-attended by the people we support and support workers. For the upcoming general election, we aim to hold similar events across various constituencies, promoting and encouraging the people we support to vote and ensuring they have the necessary information about voting, voter ID, and the candidates.
Volunteer Role
We are looking for a volunteer who is interested in or studying politics, humanities, event management, or social care. If you have a passion for politics and citizenship, we would love to hear from you and discuss a plan to support people’s knowledge around the upcoming general election.
The role will be flexible and can be based from our office in Staple Hill, from home, or both. Responsibilities will include emailing candidates, community centers, and collaborating with the Volunteer and Involvement Team to create a plan for engaging the people we support during this significant moment in local and national history.
