  • Location:
    Glasgow
  • Closing Date:
    1 February 2025
  • Skills needed:
    To have good organisational and communication skills together with lots of enthusiasm
  • Commitment :
    To have a minimum of one year in the role.

We are looking for volunteers to help at our portfolio of exciting events  such as seasonal concerts; community quizzes or gala dinners. Be a part of something truly special!

 

The NSPCC's mission is to end cruelty to children. In order to carry out its charitable work, the NSPCC relies on the fundraising support of people across the UK for 90% of its annual income. That's why the NSPCC events team put on industry leading events to raise funds and highlight the work that we do

 

We are looking for enthusiastic and organised people to join our community of event volunteers. We couldn't continue to hold industry leading events without our event volunteers who play an integral part in assisting on the night. The NSPCC events calendar brings together guests from a range of sectors for innovative, luxury and spectacular seasons of entertainment that help to raise vital funds for the NSPCC and Childline.

 

What you'll be doing

 

We have many different roles that you can get stuck in to on the night of the event. The support needed is either event set up during the day or being on hand to greet and support guests over the duration of the evening. Typically, you will be volunteering for 5 hours, usually from 5.30pm to 10.30pm, with breaks and we will provide all food and refreshments. Volunteers can expect to be:

 

  • selling raffle tickets/ items during the reception
  • acting as a table host and encouraging guests to bid in the silent auction and take part in fundraising games and activities.
  • Taking part in our live auctions by acting as bid spotters for the auctioneer.

 

 

What you'll get 

 

A community of likeminded peers and the feeling that you have helped the NSPCC to achieve a successful event which will allow them to help children across the UK.

We'll support you with check in's and materials to help in your role. We will keep you updated with NSPCC information and other ways you can support.  

 

Once you have signed up to volunteer, you will be sent further information via email.

By registering to join this session, you are consenting to your email address being shared with the NSPCC and other attendees.

 

 

We are currently unable to accept applications from under 18's to this role, please view our other volunteering opportunities or get in touch with the Volunteer Recruitment team on volunteerrecruitment@nspcc.org.uk

Safer Recruitment

As an organisation, we are committed to creating and fostering a culture that promotes safeguarding and the welfare of all children and adults at risk. Our safer recruitment practices support this by ensuring that there is a consistent and thorough process of obtaining, collating, analysing and evaluating information from and about candidates to ensure that all persons appointed are suitable to work with our children and adults.


Trauma Informed

At the NSPCC we are on a journey to becoming a trauma-informed organisation for the children, young people and families that we work with, as well as our staff and volunteers. To be trauma-informed is one of the guiding principles that shape and guide our 2021-2031 Strategy. This means understanding the nature of adversity, trauma, and resilience so that we can work towards reducing and preventing further harm and promoting recovery and healing. Coming to work at the NSPCC will provide the opportunity for you to join us in our commitment to becoming a trauma-informed organisation.
