Events Photographer – Wealden Volunteering

About this organisation
Wealden Volunteering was founded over 30 years ago by the community for the community.
Our award winning centre, originally named Uckfield Volunteer Centre, provided an invaluable community hub serving Uckfield and the surrounding area. As of 2024 we re-branded to become Wealden Volunteering to reflect our growth, as we now cover the Wealden area.
Our primary role is to match people wanting to volunteer with charities or community groups needing help. As well as helping people with volunteering, we also provide local information such as bus timetables, a photocopying & laminating service, and replacement hearing aid batteries to name a few. In addition, we support community groups and local charities, who are our members, by providing networking events and training.
Wealden Volunteering is run by a dedicated team of volunteers.
About this opportunity
We are looking for a Volunteer Photographer for events, to produce quality images we can use for write ups of the occasions and utilise in future advertising for similar events.
Whether you’re a professional or amateur photographer doesn’t matter, if you have an eye for getting the best shot, both candid or staged, then we’d love for you to join us.
We ask that any successful applicant provides us with digital copies for use with publicity, and should you want to, we are fine with you using a logo on any photos for your own advertising purposes (see below for a previous example from the Community Awards ceremony).
The events we both attend and host can vary; from formal awards evenings, to fundraisers such as our volunteer picnic, or attending local events with our gazebo.
This role is flexible, in that we wouldn’t expect you to attend every event, but ask that you try to be available for the biggest occasions in our calendar. Due to the nature of the position, this role is only open to applicants aged 16 or over.
