Community Events, Pop Up and Fairs Volunteer – Fife, Scotland. We are a UK wide charity dedicated to
calling time on the harm, abuse and exploitation of older people. Our mission is to promote safer
ageing and build a fairer society for all older people. We deliver a range of support services — from
prevention and early intervention through to direct support and recovery. Our staff and volunteers play
a vital role in raising awareness, engaging communities, and helping older people access the support
they need.
This role supports our outreach, engagement and administrative work. Volunteers help us deliver
community events, pop up information stands and awareness raising activities, while also carrying out
essential administrative tasks that ensure our work is well organised, safe and effective. This includes
using our CRM system for basic data entry, logging interactions, supporting event preparation, and
helping the team stay connected with local communities in Fife, Scotland. Volunteers represent the
charity in public settings and may occasionally support or lead events independently once fully trained
and only if they wish to opt in to this. A high level of reliability is essential, as community events depend
on confirmed attendance and we may have paid a non refundable stall holder fee.
