Website and Social Media Volunteer Volunteer Opportunity No. VO64232 - Created/last updated: 23/05/2023 | ![]() Opportunity |
About this opportunity: | Fairway Fife is a registered charity supporting people with disabilities to access social and leisure interests in their own community by way of volunteer mentors to guide and support them. By accessing everyday activities such as bowling, cinema, football matches, go karting, etc. with non-disabled peers, we provide a platform where natural friendships can develop, reducing stigmatisation and marginalisation of those with disabilities. The role will primarily be updating information, adding photos and other information so as to enable our followers and other interested parties to keep up to date with the Charity and what's going on. This will also involve managing our social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook to help raise our profile and enhance our public awareness. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
