FUND RAISING VOLUNTEERS: -Wildwood, Kent

Wildwood relies very heavily on the generosity of its' members, visitors and givers. Without the funds that these activities generate then Wildwood would be unable to continue its' important work.

We are currently seeking to create a core of committed and enthusiastic people to fund raise for Wildwood. This group would plan and execute findraising programmes and events.

Do you have some spare some time to help carry out a range of charity fundraising events that will bring in additional funds to Wildwood?

Would you like to gain experience in the field of charity fundraising?

If so then you may be able to help us. You could be part of Wildwood's efforts to conserve British wildlife and protect endangered species of animals and the natural environment for the benefit of future generations so please call Beth on 01227 712111 or beth@wildwoodtrust.org to find out more.

Have you ever considered giving up some of your time to volunteer? Do you love nature and want to help protect it? Then why not consider spending some of your free time volunteering with the RSPB.
