Role description

Do you enjoy meeting new people, being part of a team, and representing a life-saving cause?

Cornwall Air Ambulance is seeking friendly and enthusiastic Event Volunteers to support our presence at events across Cornwall. This is a flexible role where you can help as often as you wish; every hour makes a difference.

You could support events from steam rallies to music festivals, as well as play a key role at our own flagship events like Helifest or Runway Runaround.

What might you do?

  • Chat with the public, raise awareness, and encourage donations
  • Help set up and pack down stalls (gazebo, display boards, merchandise)
  • Support with bucket collections, raffles, and interactive fundraising activities
  • Represent Cornwall Air Ambulance with pride and positivity

This role is perfect for someone who is:

Friendly and enjoys talking to people
Keen to support a local charity with flexible time
Comfortable being on their feet and helping in a busy environment

You’ll always be part of a team and will be fully supported by our experienced fundraising staff and volunteers. We are proud to be accredited by Investing in Volunteers, the UK quality standard for good practice in volunteer management.

Our Groundcrew volunteers are a vital part of our team, and we would not be able to provide the service that we do without their support. We want to ensure that our volunteers have the best possible time with us, gaining skills, experience, friendship, whilst having fun. Full training, support, and volunteer kit provided. No prior experience needed; just a can-do attitude and willingness to help.
