Are you passionate about supporting individuals and families affected by ADHD? Do you want to contribute your leadership and organizational skills to a cause that truly makes a difference in your local community? If so, we need you!
About Us: We are a small but dedicated charity in West Yorkshire, committed to supporting anyone affected by ADHD. Founded by Corinne Hunter, a mother of four (three of whom have ADHD and autism), our charity was born out of a profound need for support and resources for families like hers. Recognizing the lack of statutory support, Corinne took action to create a haven of understanding and assistance.
Our Mission: Our mission is to provide comprehensive support to both children and adults with ADHD, as well as their parents, carers, and siblings. Our team is uniquely equipped with personal experience of living with ADHD—some of us have ADHD ourselves, while others care for someone with this condition. This firsthand experience fuels our passion and empathy in offering effective support.
What We Do:
- Monthly Peer Support Sessions: We organize peer support groups in every Local Authority within West Yorkshire, fostering community and understanding.
- Weekly Play Sessions: Children with ADHD and their families can enjoy weekly play sessions designed to be inclusive and supportive.
- Social Events: We host social events for teenagers and adults with ADHD, providing a safe space to connect and have fun.
- Respite Sessions: We offer fully funded respite sessions for parents and carers to take a much-needed break.
- Parenting Courses: Our parenting courses are tailored specifically for parents of neurodiverse children, providing practical strategies and support.
- Disability Benefits Support: We assist families in navigating the complex process of applying for disability benefits.
- Educational Advocacy: We support parents and carers in ensuring their children receive the necessary educational support.
Why Volunteer as a Fundraiser Manager? By volunteering as a Fundraiser Manager, you will play a crucial role in sustaining and expanding our programs. Your efforts will help us reach more families in need, provide essential resources, and create a stronger, more supportive community for those affected by ADHD.
Volunteer Fundraiser Manager Role:
- Leadership: Manage a team of volunteers dedicated to organizing and holding bi-annual fundraising events.
- Event Planning: Plan, coordinate, and execute events such as charity balls and other fundraising activities.
- Team Coordination: Oversee the recruitment, training, and management of volunteers to ensure successful event execution.
- Fundraising Strategy: Develop and implement creative fundraising strategies to meet and exceed fundraising goals.
- Community Engagement: Engage with local businesses, organizations, and community members to secure sponsorships and donations.
What We Need:
- Strong leadership and organizational skills.
- Experience in event planning or fundraising is a plus, but not required.
- Creativity and enthusiasm for planning unique and engaging fundraising events.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
- Passion for our cause and a commitment to making a difference.

Fundraising Coordinator
Working to support disadvantaged young people or trekking the Inca Trail? Why not do both?!
Get the best of both worlds for a volunteering opportunity where you give your skills, rather than your money.
Are you looking for a break from 9-5? Or are you looking to do a year abroad as part of your studies, or even before you start your studies, in an exciting and challenging environment? When volunteering with LAFF your skills will be put to good use and you will have the opportunity to work directly with beneficiaries, gain valuable field experience and increase awareness of international development issues. Based in beautiful Peru, on the doorstep of Machu Picchu, this is also a great chance to improve your Spanish fluency.
Location: Cusco
Employment Type: Full-time unpaid volunteering positions of minimum 7 hours per day are preferable, though applications for part time roles are also considered.
Leave: 2 days per month
Duration: 3 months
Application Deadline: Ongoing
LAFF sees fundraising as a way to create long term relationships with donors; as the fundraising coordinator, you will play a vital part in this, working with the communications team to consider the full donor-cycle, from first approach to long term updates about LAFF’s work and our beneficiaries.
You will focus on increasing funds from Trusts and Foundations, companies, schools and universities in order to financially support LAFF’s programs. The fundraising strategy consists of identifying fundraising opportunities; applying to grants, writing proposals to trusts, foundations and businesses; and engaging with different audiences e.g. schools and universities.
Your independent research skills and innovation will find new opportunities to build LAFF’s corporate partner network and your understanding of LAFF’s individual donor audience will develop our strategy for increasing regular monthly donors. Your success in this position will rely on your understanding of the socio-economic problems in Peru that affect LAFF’s beneficiaries and your ability to effectively communicate the importance of LAFF’s work and progress.

Under the supervision of the Program Manager, the Fundraising Coordinator will be expected to carry out the following tasks:
-
Plan, develop and carry out LAFF’s fundraising activities including grant writing

Support the Events and Campaigns Coordinator to launch campaigns encouraging fundraising activities for LAFF’s supporters

Maintain and update LAFF’s fundraising strategy
-
Ensure that fundraising practices reflect the priorities, mission and vision of LAFF
