Volunteer for BOSP
Our volunteers are amazing and we simply could not be without them! We are always looking for enthusiastic people to help with our work here at BOSP.
Fundraising Volunteer
Being a fundraising volunteer is fun and rewarding so why not join our team? We could always do with extra support to raise vital funds for equipment and services.
We run regular fundraising events across the year in Billericay, Basildon or Brentwood. Whether it's helping us to prepare for Charity Balls and lunches, running a tombola stall, collecting raffle prizes, cheering on runners at sponsored events or taking part in street collections, it is such a great help to us.
Or you may prefer to run your own annual events with friends, colleagues and family, from coffee afternoons to Come Dine with Me dinners, setting yourself challenges and targets throughout the year.
If you are interested in supporting us and making new friends, whilst having fun, then please call The BOSP Office on 01268 553117 or email [email protected] for more information.
