Community Outreach Volunteer

We are looking for enthusiastic individuals who enjoy talking to the community, and are happy to learn about the work we do and share it with others. We are looking for individuals who are at ease interacting with members of the public at events including health and wellbeing events, fairs, and community engagement events. The role might include running an activity (like friendly games or a planting activity), providing information (by sharing details of our activities) or helping with fundraising activities. 

We are keen to work with local people who want to help us spread the word about what we do, encourage more people to be aware of the opportunities we offer and be an advocate of Love Outdoors. 

Full training will be given, including visits to some of our projects. Over the summer, there are likely to be more opportunities so as we approach this busy time of year, if this sounds like something you might be interested in please get in touch. This is a casual role and often involves weekend events.
