Full job description

Every 130 minutes, someone loses their life to heart or circulatory diseases in Northern Ireland. Sometimes without the chance to say goodbye. That's why British Heart Foundation (BHF) powers groundbreaking research to save and improve the lives of people affected by conditions. But we can’t do it alone. We are so grateful for our volunteers up and down the country who support the British Heart Foundation (BHF) in their communities.

Support your local Fundraising Manager and their team to represent the BHF in your community and help promote our work and increase fundraising opportunities
Actively engage and build relationships with local groups and associations.
Give talks and short presentations about the BHF and inspire others to support our life saving work.
Accept fundraising donations on behalf of the BHF from community groups and organisations, attending cheque collections and saying a few words of thanks.
Act as a lead volunteer at local BHF events like collections and cheerpoints, managing and supporting our Action team volunteers on the day

By volunteering with the BHF, you will have the opportunity to use your skills to support and have fun. With your support, we power groundbreaking research, CPR training, as well as information and support to help keep hearts beating across the Northern Ireland.
