After a successful first year, we're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help shape and grow the Green Fringe Festival for next year. The Green Fringe Festival is a celebration of nature, creativity, community and wellbeing, bringing together organisations, artists, community groups and volunteers to deliver a programme of outdoor events across Rushmoor.

As our Fundraising Assistant you will:

• Liaise with the Funding Applications Lead to identify suitable grant opportunities, prepare and submit high-quality funding applications, and manage funding deadlines to ensure they align with the festival's timeline. 
• Liaise closely with the festival planning team to develop a thorough understanding of the project, its objectives, and intended outcomes.
• Present a compelling case to potential funders.

This role is ideal for someone who is highly organised, demonstrates good timekeeping, enjoys research, and has strong writing skills, with the ability to communicate ideas clearly and persuasively. Previous fundraising experience is helpful but not essential.

What skills do I need?

We're looking for volunteers who are:

• Well organised and able to manage deadlines
• Confident researching information online
• Comfortable writing clear, engaging content
• Able to work independently and as part of a team
• Interested in supporting community and environmental projects
• Experience with grant applications or fundraising would be advantageous.
