To apply for this role, and any other on our platform, you need to be based in the UK, have at least three years of experience using the skills you wish to volunteer in a professional capacity or have lived experience (for trustee roles). Read more about our criteria.

Barefoot and Free are looking for a creative experienced volunteer who has fresh ideas with the expertise and passion to make them a reality.

What will you be doing?

A wonderful opportunity for a vibrant creative individual to come up with new fundraising ideas and put them into practice to support our vulnerable families and children….

We would love to speak to anyone who is passionate about fundraising, organising them, from cake sales to fun runs. If you feel you are someone who can motivate others, steer current and new supporters to sign up and help them organise fundraising events or organise our own fundraising charity events then we would love to speak to you..... we need your help. This is not a bid writing role, it's a hands on event organising role motivating others to fundraise and organising our own fundraisers on limited funds.

What are we looking for?

We’d love someone who is passionate about supporting the families we serve, someone who is creative and can put a plan in action, someone who has had experience in successful fundraising activities, events or online success. Bringing in new supporters, organising events or coming up with some new online ideas.

What difference will you make?

We are a small charity fighting hard to support our families, as we grow, we need to bring in more funding, could you be the person to support us? Are you creative with vibrant ideas that could work boost our fundraising?

Your support will help us to grow and support more families, our families are extremely important to us, we support amazing children and young people fighting big issues due to neurodiversity or trauma resulting in mental health issues, many of our children are unable to access school or their own communities, our trauma children are often recovering from some of the following:  grief, PTSD, bullying, physical, emotional or sexual abuse, we work hard as a team to fund staycations so our families can breathe and take a break so they can recuperate to face the challenges they so unfairly face. You will have the chance to make a huge difference to the lives of the vulnerable families we support at Barefoot and Free.

We can’t wait to see what you can do! Please get in touch.
