Community Champion

Momentum Children’s Charity supports families across London, Surrey, and Sussex whose children are facing cancer or a life-challenging condition. We work in partnership with local hospitals to provide tailored support, therapy services, and respite breaks to help families cope during the most difficult times.

As a Community Champion, you will be a passionate advocate for Momentum Children’s Charity in your local area. You’ll raise awareness, inspire others to get involved, and play a vital role in helping us build a growing network of community-led fundraising support. You’ll take ownership of local engagement and help drive income generation, working alongside a values-led charity team that is committed to making a real difference.

This is a brilliant opportunity to gain experience in charity promotion and community organising, with access to training, support, and the chance to grow your skills in a purposeful and flexible role.

• Collection Tin Coordination: Place and monitor collection tins in local shops and venues, and collect donations (access to a car or   ability to travel locally preferred).

• Leafleting and Posters: Distribute leaflets and put up posters in local shops, schools, libraries, and community spaces.

• Event Promotion: Help promote local fundraising events and initiatives, encouraging friends, family, and neighbours to take part.
