Volunteer with our Events team

Volunteers help us to make our events the success that they are. Whether that is helping out on the day or encouraging our supporters; working alongside the team to develop and deliver our online events portfolio or working hard behind the scenes in the preparation for events, our volunteers are vital to helping us to end homelessness.

You can support our fundraising events in an ad hoc way that can fit with your commitments or in a more longer-term volunteer role where you help to plan and organise them.

Volunteer at our events

Our Events Volunteers support at events such as The Race to End Homelessness, Crisis Icebreaker and London Marathon with a variety of tasks to help us deliver excellent care to our supporters.

They provide on the day event support – which could include registering participants, carrying out collections or cash handling; all the time ensuring our supporters feel engaged and valued, and have a great supporter experience.

As part of their volunteer experience our Events Volunteers gain:

  • Experience of volunteering within a busy events team within a large UK charity
  • An understanding and practical experience of how to plan and run a fundraising event
  • Event logistics and policies
  • Talking to supporters and understanding their motivations for fundraising

Sound like something you would enjoy?

We are always looking for Events Volunteers to support our events. If you are enthusiastic, have great communication skills, a positive can-do attitude and are passionate about ending homelessness we would love to hear from you.
