Love Christmas and want to support those who need it most? Join our Festival of Trees Volunteer team!

What are we looking for?

We are looking for enthusiastic and well-connected individuals to support our annual Festival of Trees event in a Sponsor Liaison Volunteer role. Christmas is a crucial time of year for us at the NSPCC and this event is a magical way to bring people together, promote the importance of the work that we do and of course raise vital funds for those who are supported by the NSPCC.

What will you be doing?

We are recruiting for individuals to take on a role of: liaising with potential sponsors to bring them on board, maintaining relationships with existing sponsors to ensure continued support, using personal/community connections to secure new sponsors and communicating with supporters. We would also love it if you could assist with general event logistics such as decorating and setting up/tidying materials and equipment.

How regular is the volunteering?

This is a flexible volunteer role that can easily fit around you and your schedule. The work for this role will be done in the months leading up to Christmas, and although there is no specific time commitment, there will be a requirement to contact sponsors during their opening hours, so it is important that some of your availability is during typical working hours. We can work with you to find times that suit you and your lifestyle!

What will you get from the role?

You will be playing a key role in helping to protect children and support families during the festive season. This is a rewarding opportunity to give back, meet like-minded people, and enjoy the Christmas spirit, all while making a real impact! We will support you with advice, skills and tools to help you spread the word of the NSPCC and you will also have the opportunity to grow your skills when it comes to communication, fundraising and building relationships.

Who is right for the role?

We are looking for individuals who are:

• Passionate about the work of the NSPCC
• Enthusiastic and personable
• Organised, proactive and comfortable working independently and as part of a team
• Excellent communicators who are able to represent the NSPCC warmly and professionally
• Well-connected within their local area
• Lovers of Christmas!

Think you could be a good fit? We'd love to hear from you!

Volunteering today will allow you to join us in making a difference and fighting for every childhood. Let's make Christmas truly special – together.
