Volunteer: Memory Walk project team volunteer, Brighton/Hove

Where will I be volunteering?

In the Brighton/Hove area.

What will I be doing?

The Memory Walk is Alzheimer's Society annual flagship fundraising event, raising significant amounts each year.  Local walks take place all over the country in September. The funds raised will be used to support people with dementia and their carers. There will be a walk in the Brighton/Hove area.

This volunteer role is vital as the project team will support the Community Fundraiser in planning, organising and delivering the Memory Walk.  In this role you will help to recruit and support Memory Walk volunteers, help to promote the walk and provide a co-ordination role in the run up to the walk and on the day itself.

How much time do you expect me to commit?

The walk will be held in September 2013 but organisation begins several months in advance. Typically volunteers in this role attend a number of meetings in the 6-8 months before the walk takes place and help with practical activities outside the meetings.
