Cats Protection: Events Helper – Volunteer Opportunity
Help raise vital funds and make a difference for cats in your community
Salisbury Branch Needs You!
Run by a small team of dedicated, cat-loving volunteers, we’re passionate about improving the lives of cats and kittens in Salisbury.
Without volunteers, Cats Protection Salisbury & District Branch simply wouldn't exist. Our amazing, friendly volunteers are a diverse group with a shared love of cats who fit volunteering around their home lives and personal commitments.
As well as meeting great people and making an incredible difference to the cats of Salisbury, you'll enjoy practical benefits such as discounted pet insurance.
*Please note volunteers need to be 18+
What you’ll be doing
Our Fundraising Events Helpers play a vital role in supporting local fundraising activities – from bake sales and street collections to quiz nights and barn dances. No two events are the same, and every one of them helps raise much-needed funds for cats and kittens in need.
As a volunteer, you may:
- Help set up and run stalls at events
- Support street collections or supermarket fundraising days
- Lend a hand at fun, community-based events like dances, cake sales, or quizzes
- Represent Cats Protection professionally and warmly in public
What you can expect from us
We want your time with us to be positive, rewarding and impactful. That’s why we’ll:
- Ensure you feel welcomed, respected and included – always
- Support you throughout your volunteering journey
- Reimburse agreed out-of-pocket expenses (as per our Expenses Policy)
- Offer access to learning and development opportunities
Your time, your choice
This is a highly flexible role. Whether you can give a couple of hours to a single event or attend several across the year, we’ll keep you informed about upcoming local opportunities – and you choose what suits you best. Every moment you give helps cats in need.
Interested?
You might be just the person we’re looking for. For an informal chat about the role, contact Jason at jason.reading@cats.org.uk.
