Every day, people in our community turn to East Lancashire Hospice for care at the most difficult time in their lives. That care only happens thanks to the generosity of local supporters, and as one of our fundraisers, you'll be the friendly face who helps people give.

A typical day might mean speaking with shoppers at a supermarket, meeting a neighbour on their doorstep, or talking with families at a community event, sharing why the hospice matters and inviting them to become regular supporters. It's sociable, varied and rewarding - you'll have full training from day one and a supportive team behind you.

About you

You might be someone who:

• Is a good listener, enjoys talking to people, persuasive, and able to create a rapport in a face-to-face situation
• Has a full driving licence and your own vehicle
• Is self-motivated with a positive attitude, a high level of self-motivation and a strong work ethic
• Wants to put their life skills and experience to good use by helping others and who could become a committed advocate for East Lancashire Hospice
