  Aide

  We have been an established charity for over 2 year now, but have actively worked in the community for over 10 years in total. We are in a growth stage of our existence and we'd love some people to join us in sharing their knowledge, experience, curiosity and expertise in the charity sector. You might have worked in the sector for many years or just have started to get interested on what goes into running a charity - we'd love to hear from you! It would be useful for us for someone to look through and develop our existing policies and strategies.
  
  Another priority of ours is finding help with social media marketing and IT skills to enhance our online presence and raise more awareness of the projects we're running. We already have our own website and Facebook page.
  
  Of course, a huge part of our work involves bid writing and fundraising strategies. We are keen to grow even more and reach more people, so if you're particularly keen in this area, we'd love for you to join us!
  
  There are always some admin work to be done in the office - be it sorting through paperwork and helping with reports and other computer based work
  
  Feel like you have anything else to share with us? Do give us a message and we're happy to discuss of how we can be beneficial to each other's growth.
