Guide Dogs Fundraising Group Coordinator

If you are some with a passion for organising events, and meeting new people, then this could be the perfect role for you. You can be as creative in the role as you like, being part of a group of like-minded people and understanding your local community, you can turn that dream of hosting a pub quiz into a reality...and raise funds and awareness at the same time. As we said, you will not be alone in the role and will have the support of the group and staff at Guide Dogs to get you on your way. Though if this role nearly ticks every box but are you are worried about the time or knowledge, you can have a chat about it, or drop us an email at volunteer@guidedogs.org.uk
