Community Champion Volunteer

As a Community Champion volunteer, you’ll play a vital role in helping us raise funds and awareness to support people with complex disabilities. You’ll engage with individuals, local businesses, and groups to share our mission, organise events, and inspire others to take action. Whether you’re great at public speaking, planning events, or connecting with your community, this role has something for you.

Fundraising: Organise and participate in events like bake sales or charity walks to support Sense’s work.
Community Outreach: Raise awareness about our mission through conversations, presentations, and social media.
Relationship Building: Develop partnerships with local businesses, groups, and other supporters.
Public Speaking: Represent Sense at community events, spreading the word about our impact.
Campaign Promotion: Help spread the word about fundraising initiatives and encourage donations.
Ambassador Activities: Attend events such as cheque presentations to thank and connect with partners.
Please note, we’re not expecting each volunteer to do each item listed but instead focus on two or three areas. We’ll also look to shape the role around your strengths and skillsets as much as possible.

Being well-connected in your local area and love engaging with people.
A strong communicator who enjoys encouraging others to get involved.
Passionate about helping people with complex disabilities and motivated by our mission.
Creative, organised, and good at prioritising tasks.
Due to the nature of the volunteer role, we cannot accept applications for anyone under the age of 18.

Full training and ongoing support from Sense’s dedicated team.
Opportunities to develop new skills in fundraising, leadership, and public engagement.
