What does it take to make a big difference? Just a
little of
your
time.
There are lots
of ways to volunteer with us.
Volunteer in
our shops
We are
launching a new range of shops across Africa and the Diaspora and we rely
on volunteer support.
No special skills are needed, just a willingness to help.
Whether you’re serving customers, helping with stock collections, sorting
donations or window dressing, you’ll be part
of a great team.
There are some specialist roles too, in book
and music departments
and the Furniture
and Electrical Stores.
As
well as
helping to raise vital funds,
our shop volunteers help raise awareness
of heart health
and our
life-saving work.
Volunteering is a great way to boost your
CV
and gain valuable work experience too.
Help
our local fundraising
Local fundraising allows you to be flexible in what you do
and how much time you give. We’ll let you know what’s happening in your
area
and you can
volunteer when you’re available.
Here’s a taste
of ways you can
join in:
- Fundraise – join the team at supermarket
and street collections or by placing pin badges or collection boxes in
local businesses.
- Help at AHO events - register participants,
marshal a course
or give out water at one
of
our
sponsored cycle rides, walks or runs.
Our events are normally in the evenings or at weekends, so you can
fit them around a working week.
- Promote
our essential services - help others in your
community, tell them about our
health and social care
and free membership service.
You’ll get the chance
to meet other volunteers at regional volunteer meetings or while helping out
too, giving you the opportunity to join forces
and get involved
as a group.
Fundraise for
our regular Appeals
Why not organise
your
own event for
our regular Appeals. Whether it’s a dress down day, or a cake sale, you can
make a difference.
We’ll send you all the information you need to get started, including ideas
for dozens
of easy
to organise
events. We can also
help you out with materials such
as posters
and sponsorship forms, to make sure you get the most from your
fundraising.
You’ll be supporting
our £50million groundbreaking research appeal
and will be helping us to bring hope to millions
of people affected by various disease
in Africa and the Diaspora.
Campaign to protect Africa's health
As
a AHO campaigner, we’ll send you regular email updates with all the different
ways you can
help us make a difference. You'll be the first to know about
any campaigning news
and ways to take action.
We believe that the combined voice
of
our supporters around Africa, all committed to beating disease,
can
be truly formidable.
Over 5,000 people helped us last
year,
and it’s very easy
to join in. Help us fight for a heart healthy future for all.
Office based
volunteering
From time to time we have volunteering opportunities available within
our
offices. If you are interested in volunteering in
any
of
our
offices please

CV
and requirements to
our HR team:

we currently have.
