About this volunteering opportunity
At Sea Cadets, we offer young people fantastic opportunities both on and off the water. Our cadets have a huge amount of fun whilst also gaining qualifications, confidence and resilience, launching them for life today.
None of this would be possible without our fantastic volunteers both face to face with cadets and behind the scenes.
We are particularly looking for a volunteer to support our fundraising efforts. This will support our unit by ensuring we are sustainable for the future and also allow us to provide more opportunites to young people.
About the volunteer fundraiser role
You will need to liaise with the UMT and support them in their fundraising. Your main role will be to lead on the different types of fundraising, such as trust and foundation applications, letters of appeal, community events and challenge events. You will have full support and training, if required, from the fundraising team at the National Support Centre.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for someone with fundraising experience, for example in organising and running fundraising events, grant writing or putting together fundraising campaigns or bids.
Benefits of volunteering
This is a hugely rewarding role, helping young people change their lives and thrive. There are also fantastic opportunities for personal development and training, including gaining qualifications in watersports, leadership and managment and first aid.
