Current opportunity

SSAFA, the armed forces charity that supports armed forces personnel, their families and veterans is currently setting up an exciting Serving Community Team in Kinloss and would welcome volunteers from the area. You do not need a military background to volunteer; people from outside the serving community but who live in the local area are very welcomed to get in touch. Volunteers with the Kinloss Serving Community Team help look after all those working and living on and near Kinloss Barracks and they do this in a number of ways. As a Serving Community volunteer, you will be helping the serving community access financial, practical, and emotional support when they need it. Depending on the role you choose, you might be fundraising, managing finances, or helping us with marketing. SSAFA is seeking to refresh their offering to the serving community, to ensure they give tailored support to each site, that is in tune with the needs of today's serving personnel. Currently, there are administration roles, (supporting meeting and events) roles to help distribute funding grants to those in need, welcoming, supporting and coordinating other volunteers, and volunteers needed to help plan and organise networking and community events. Everyone who offers their time to volunteer with SSAFA makes a huge difference. The roles are varied, flexible and very rewarding, giving back to those who are serving. It makes a real difference to the people living in the Kinloss area and all help is greatly appreciated.
