Fundraising Group Leader (Various Locations)

Oxfam's Fundraising Groups are teams of volunteers who work together to raise vital funds for Oxfam's work to alleviate poverty and suffering worldwide.

Group fundraising activities can be anything and everything - from duck races to gala dinners, sponsored walks to music events.

As the group continues to grow we are now looking for enthusiastic individuals to help develop our local fundraising events - with roles ranging from logistic management, to publicity and promotion, and on-the-day coordination.

Whatever you and the group choose to do, the Oxfam fundraising team will be on hand to offer help and advice every step of the way. 

Frequency: Flexible, 2 - 4 hours per week, at times to suit you!

Locations: Malmesbury, Cirencester, Taunton.
