Collection Box Volunteer

Collection Box Volunteer (21yrs & Over)

Love getting out and about in your community? Want a flexible way to make a real difference?

Derian House has collection boxes placed in businesses across Chorley and surrounding areas. These little boxes play a big role in raising vital funds and awareness for our children’s hospice services.

To keep this support flowing, our boxes need to be collected, replaced, and returned to our Fundraising Team on a regular basis.

We’re looking for friendly, reliable, and professional volunteers to help with this important fundraising and community facing role. You’ll be a local ambassador – building relationships with our collection box hosts and keeping them connected with the latest Derian news.

This is a perfect opportunity for an individual (or a pair of friends!) looking for a flexible role that fits around other commitments.

• Look after charity collection boxes in local shops and venues
• Build friendly connections with local businesses
• Collect and replace boxes when they’re full
• Help identify new locations where a box could be placed

• Good knowledge of local areas to Derian House
• Reliable, trustworthy and organised
• Friendly, confident, and comfortable chatting with a variety of people
• Ability to drive (full, clean driving licence)

• Gain experience working within our Fundraising Team
• Know you’re making a real difference to our babies, children, young people and their families
• Meet other Derian volunteers at events and make new friends
• Every coin collected helps support babies, children, and young people who rely on Derian House.

Monday to Friday - flexible hours available.

Full site induction & mandatory online annual training will be provided.

The minimum age for volunteering in this role is 21 years.

We ask all applicants to disclose, in confidence, any unspent criminal convictions in advance of a DBS check.
