OTHER VOLUNTEERING ROLES
CoFarm Foundation is a tiny charity with a big vision to ensure that, by 2030, everyone in the United Kingdom will have access to local, sustainably produced food and opportunities to enjoy growing and sharing it with others.
We are still a young organisation and need lots of help with building our capacity to realise that vision. We currently have a particular need for support in our office with:
Administration - general office administration e.g. preparation of Trustee Board papers and draft minutes and inputting data into our impact monitoring systems
Fundraising - research on prospective grant making organisations and assistance with drafting compelling funding applications and reports to donors
Marketing & Communications support - researching and drafting web blogs; social media posts and press releases and developing printed and digital marketing materials
If you have a particular flair and experience in any of these areas and some time that you could dedicate on a regular basis to supporting our growth, we’d love to hear from you. Please get in touch with our Founder & CEO, Gavin Shelton, to set up a call or a meeting.
