A bit about this role

As a charity we can continue to help cats and kittens in need thanks to the donations we receive at fundraising events from generous members of the public. Our fundraising event helpers have the exciting and varied role of helping at local fundraising events - such as cakes sales, barn dances, quiz nights – and everything in between!

You can expect us

  • to make you feel welcome, included and respected in line with our values and behaviours
  • support you in having a positive and impactful experience at Cats Protection
  • cover agreed out-of-pocket expenses in line with our Expenses Policy
  • provide you with access to learning, development and engagement opportunities

What we need from you

You'll be:

  • help set up and/or man stalls at events
  • help on collection days like supermarket collections events or street collections
  • help at fundraising events such as quiz nights, cake sales and dances
  • promoting a professional image of Cats Protection at events

We’ll keep you up to date with upcoming local events where volunteers are needed. You’ll then be able to choose which events you’d like to volunteer at and how many hours you’d like to give. However much time you can give, your contribution will help raise much needed funds to continue the work of Cats Protection. You may be just the volunteer we've been looking for! We are committed to building a diverse, compassionate and inclusive organisation where everyone can be themselves and do their best. We are courageous and compassionate in our purpose of helping people see the world through cats’ eyes. Together, we can make a difference. Together, we are all for cats. Join the UK’s leading cat welfare charity and help make a better life for cats, because life is better with cats.
