Fundraising Volunteer (Bucket Collection, Belfast City Centre)

Opportunity image

Available from 14 December 2024

A bucket collection has been organised for Saturday 14 December 10-4pm in Belfast City Centre and it would be fabulous to have as many Mencap Staff/supporters/volunteers helping us on the day – if you could spare an hour or two it would be great to hear from you, perhaps you could use this as a break between shopping, meeting friends, going to the Belfast Christmas Market, OR even for that Christmas tipple!

Please ask friends and family if they can help the more volunteers the better. We have arranged a hub at 2 Royal Avenue as a meeting point and a safe place to leave bags, shopping etc…
