Branch Activities and Events Volunteer (South Lanarkshire)

We have 116 volunteer-led branches across the UK, covering almost three quarters of the country. Our hard-working volunteers run support, information and social activities for autistic adults, children and their families in their local area. They also organise and join in with fundraising and campaigning.

Our branches run a huge range of activities, from coffee mornings for parents, children's activities, raising autism awareness and fundraising events. **If you have sound organisational skills and enjoy planning things out, this could be the role for you. **

The role is fully supported by the regional Senior Branch Engagement Officer and the other South Lanarkshire branch volunteers. You will receive full guidance and training for everything you’ll need to do. You will attend branch committee meetings and contribute your thoughts on future branch activities, support the delivery of branch activities and have the option of assisting with raising autism awareness in the South Lanarkshire area.

Do you have a few hours a month to give to volunteering? This role can fit around your responsibilities, and you can decide when you would like to volunteer. There is flexibility on the amount of the time you give too. We know our volunteers have busy lives and we do our best to fit around you.
