We are looking for volunteers to form a fundraising sub group as this is so important to Shropshire Disability Network. You will form a group to plan events, book bucket collections, social events, awareness days etc.
You will be in a team of people to arrange events ie bucket collections at various shops/centres. Arrange an annual social event to bring in funding. This could be a social event, an activity ie fun day, car boot sale or similar. We are always open to new ideas.
All our volunteers are insured when organising and taking part in activities. SDN will pay for any necessary costs for planning to take place as well as associated costs including reimbursement of out of pocket expenditure. You should enjoy working with other people. The reason we need a fundraisng group is we get no funding from local or National Government.
We need to raise about £10,000 a year to operate. We sell badges and wrist bands plus have raffles at our quarterly meetings. We also hold Table Top sales monthly to fund our Safe Place Shropshire scheme When a group is form, we will still do this. We also hold Awareness days at the Princess Royal Hospital on alternate months. You will get support from the Management Committee.
Many of our members have disabilities so it is more difficult for them to organise a fundraising event ie we need people to organise so that they can support. By offering to help in this part of our work, you will be helping over 11000 in Shropshire.
