Technology is the future and a key to ensure Barnardo's stays. Amazing staff with big hearts who really care about the work they're doing.
Purpose of opportunity:
We currently have around 150 fundraising groups across the UK who create and participate in their own programme of fun activities from antique auction nights, to curry and quiz nights, from a weekend trip to Brittany to cabaret nights. Each group chooses their own event to organise and host in their local community, engaging with local supporters in raising funds for Barnardo's. The fundraising events are always social, entertaining, and a fun way to meet new people.
Our fundraising groups need new members to join them to be part of a great group of people who want to make a difference to the lives of vulnerable children, young people and their families.
