Volunteer Hospice Champion

Get involved with our busy Individual Giving fundraising team and help us continue to provide end of life care for our community when it’s needed the most.

You’ll be helping to promote our Sponsor A Nurse Regular Giving programme and/or our Hospice Lottery whilst creating awareness of our work in the community, by attending local hospice or community led events across West Sussex and South East Surrey.

We're looking for enthusiastic individuals to join a team of hospice ambassadors to attend events in the Surrey and West Sussex area, to create awareness of our Regular Giving and/or Lottery fundraising options and to get more supporting us. This is not a target led role, but with your help we hope to expand our committed giving in the community.

This is a people facing volunteer role, which will teach invaluable skills that could be transferrable to any workplace. Your manager will be able to provide a reference to support any further employment opportunities.

Please note: the role may require you to be at the hospice or out and about at events but the volunteer manager for the role will discuss this with each applicant.

• Full UK Driving Licence would be desirable but not essential, driver must be over 21 with 2 years minimum experience

• A caring approach
• Being able to demonstrate strong emotional resilience

• A methodical approach, with good attention to detail
