The MS Aberdeen Group are looking for Events & Fundraising Volunteers to lead the organisation of Group events and to lead our fundraising efforts. The Group cover a wide area including Aberdeen City and South Aberdeenshire. We want to raise the awareness of the MS community to the support we provide and to raise the necessary funds to provide such support across the region. We believe this will best be delivered by a varied programme of events and fundraising techniques. Excellent support and relevant guidance is provided to all volunteers. The MS Society provides an online induction process to provide familiarisation with the MS Society. Volunteer support is available to assist volunteers whenever they require it. A fantastic opportunity to help and make a real difference for people with MS.
