Collection Tin Volunteer
Magpas Air Ambulance
As a collection tin volunteer, you will play a vital role in supporting us to raise our profile and fundraise within your community. You will look after the Magpas Air Ambulance collection tins within a designated area, replacing full tins and returning them to an agreed location. You can also help us by finding new locations in which to place tins. These collection tins are an important part of how we raise money, raising approximately £20,000 per year.
