• To work with other volunteers and the whole team to develop a fundraising strategy.
• To find and apply for funding (Possibly: To start and liaise with a fundraising group).
• Ideally you will be expected to work on this for around 25-45 days/year or as much time as you can give. This can be as flexible as you need it to be .
• Visit shops and businesses to secure sponsorship/match funding, raise money/get raffle prizes etc.

The role is unpaid but normal and reasonable out of pocket expenses would be paid if needed.
