Make a difference by giving the gift of time
by volunteering at Charlie House
Santa’s Workshop is back this festive season, and we are once again on the lookout for Elves! This fun-filled volunteering opportunity is perfect for those happy-go-lucky individuals who want to spread Christmas cheer to families at the Bon Accord centre across the North-east of Scotland. There will always be a chief Elf on hand to keep any mischievous Elves in order!
Fundraisers like these are not possible without the help of our amazing volunteers.
We're looking for festive volunteers to become part of our Santa Squad and help check in participants, hand out Santa outfits, cheer on our Santa's, and more! Whether it's yourself, with family, or teaming up with a bunch of your friends, we want to hear from you!
Volunteering will take place around the city centre on November 19th between 3PM - 6PM with the Santa Squad being placed around Union Street, Carden Place, or St Margarets School for Girls. Positions are based off your interests and skills and volunteers must be aged 16 and above.
