Volunteering Roles with Barnardo’s

 

Barnardo’s are looking to recruit two different campus-based volunteering roles for the next academic year. The roles are unpaid and the applicants must be students for 2008/09. Not only will both roles look fantastic when applying for jobs, they are also endorsed by the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) and you will have the opportunity to work towards a Career Development Award from CIM.

Barnardo’s are looking for creative, energetic and organised students from universities and colleges around the UK to work in groups as Student Event Fundraisers. As a group they would like you to run at least 2 events over the academic year with the aim of raising £700 to help continue their work with children and young people. http://www.barnardos.org.uk/get_involved/students/studenteventfundraisers.htm

They are also looking for inventive, determined and socially aware students from universities and colleges around the UK to volunteer as Student Brand Managers to help raise the profile of Barnardo’s amongst the students at their Institute. Working on your own, or part of a group, you will have the chance to get involved in campaigning and awareness raising activities, marketing, market research and much more! http://www.barnardos.org.uk/get_involved/students/studentbrandmanagers.htm

For more information on either of these roles or how to apply, get in touch with Sian Fraser, Student Programme Officer, on 0208 498 7523 or by email to sian.fraser@barnardos.org.uk 

The closing date for the applications is 31^st October and the positions will start in November 2008.
