We are looking for volunteers to help with fundraising and social activities, by attending events and engaging with the public about the work we do. Fundraising at events we attend can be in many forms; running a classic tombola, or a raffle for example, but we are open to ideas from volunteers about other methods to generate funds, especially those which engage the public and inspire them to learn about civil aviation history.
As part of our friendly team, you will attend local groups and community activities, offering information, guidance, and signposting to relevant services, support organisations, and community groups. You may also help people complete a range of forms, including Attendance Allowance applications and other benefit-related paperwork, giving them the confidence and support they need to access available help.
