Join your local Guide Dogs Fundraising Group

Organisation name: Guide Dogs

Role: Join your local Guide Dogs Fundraising Group

Application: Through the Guide Dogs website

Location: Over 400 fundraising groups across the UK – please visit the website to find out what roles are available where you live.

Guide Dogs helps people with sight loss live the life they choose.

With each guide dog costing the organisation £102,000 throughout its lifetime, fundraising volunteers have such a valuable impact on us being able to provide our services to people who need them.

There are a range of opportunities from helping out now and again, to taking the lead and coordinating a group. Or perhaps you’d like to coordinator collection boxes in your local area, or look after the merchandise for your local group.

What you’ll be doing:

• Raising valuable funds as part of your group.
• Inspire people to support Guide Dogs and make a difference to someone with sight loss.
• Have fun finding new events and places to volunteer at.
• You’ll meet lots of special dogs – from young puppies in training to incredible guide dogs in partnership.
• You’ll empower others to get involved with Guide Dogs.
• You can take on as much or as little as you want, and you can fit the role around your other commitments.

Ideally you will: 

• Be a good communicator
• Work well in a team

You’ll get:

• The satisfaction in knowing you are supporting people with sight loss to live actively, independently, and well. 

• Volunteering for Guide Dogs should never leave you out of pocket.  We’ll make sure we pay any expenses related to your volunteering with us in line with our policy. 

 Training and support 

• Virtual training
• Ongoing support

If you have questions about the training requirements, we can answer these at your interview along with any other support or accessibility needs you may have. 

Minimum age for this role: 18

No expiry date for this role currently.
