We strongly believe in giving a helping hand to family carers, but in order to be fully operational, we need more volunteers and donations.
We registered the Dementia Carer's Respite charity on the 23rd March this year and then the hard work began! To make a charity successful requires a great deal of time and effort as well as help and support from the community.
Like all charities, our success is heavily dependent on the generosity of people giving donations, as well as those who are able to give some of their free time in order to help with the many tasks that need doing, both now and on an ongoing basis.
These are some of the roles we are currently looking to fill as soon as possible:
- Fund raising bid writers
- Fundraiser with sports experience
- Crowd funding guru /doer
- Market stand volunteers (to set up and represent)
- Receptionist carers' coordinator
- Social media multiplier
- Customer relationship management experience
- Qualitative / quantitative surveys organiser
If you would like to pledge a monetary donation or if you are able to contribute even a few hours of your valuable time, please email us at support@dementia-respite.org.uk or complete the form below.
Kind Regards
