Can you help Cats Protection’s Frome & District Branch raise cash for the kitty?
Cats Protection’s Frome & District branch needs to recruit a volunteer fundraising and events co-ordinator and fundraising volunteers to help raise money for its vital cat welfare work.
The branch, which is run entirely by volunteers, needs people who can spare a few hours a month. No previous fundraising experience is necessary as the charity can provide assistance and support materials.
Regional fundraiser Diana Miller said, “The branch does a huge amount of work to help local cats, but we really need more volunteers to help raise money to enable us to carry on our work.
“The roles are varied and include organising raffles, attending fetes and fairs and getting support from local businesses.
“You don’t have to be a fundraising expert as we can provide assistance and support materials, but we do need people who care about cats and have bags of enthusiasm.
“By sparing just a couple of hours a week it can make a huge difference to needy cats.
“We are sure whoever takes on the roles will find it incredibly rewarding. It’s also a great way to make new friends – both human and feline!”
Cats Protection is the UK’s leading cat charity and the Frome & District branch is part of a nationwide network of over 250 volunteer-run branches and 36 centres that together help around 200,000 cats and kittens each year.
As well as finding new homes for unwanted and abandoned cats, the charity also offers cat care advice to the public and can help towards the cost of neutering.
