ROLE DESCRIPTION

Why we need you

The charity has around 100 branches, all run by volunteers, who provide local support to people affected by autism. Every branch is different and so are the activities they provide – they may run parent support groups, adult social groups, children’s activities, conferences or focus on providing information or campaigning. However, no matter how big or small, all branches are hugely valued by the people in their local area.

 

What you will be doing

Assisting at in person branch activities such as bucket collections, fundraising activities, etc.  Where extra volunteers are required on the day of an event.

 

ABOUT THIS ORGANISATION

The National Autistic Society is here to transform lives, change attitudes and create a society that works for autistic people.

 

We change attitudes by improving public understanding of autism and the difficulties many autistic people face. We also work closely with businesses, local authorities and government to help them provide more autism-friendly spaces, deliver better services and improve laws.
