Event Lead

We are looking for extra capacity within our small volunteer team for someone to lead on events.

Ideally, we would like to offer our members between 2/3 (one of these would be the AGM) events annually. This could grow as the charity does. These will tend to be online but could be in person.

We are looking for someone keen to put their time management and organisational skills into action and, as a result, see the impact HDA can have on people with dyslexia across the county.

The individual would be responsible for all aspects of the design and admin of these events, including:

- Coordinating with the speakers

- Booking the venue and coordinate with them if in person / if not, make sure Zoom is booked

- Create a booking system, either through Forms, Eventbrite or other free booking systems

-Marketing the event through social media and other contacts

- Email all attendees with details and be a point of contact

- Attending events and making sure they run smoothly

- Conduct all the needed health, safety and risk assessments if the event is in person.

This role would be significant for someone who wants to join a small but committed group of people looking to support more people across the county in finding the information and support in dealing with the condition. 

Please note that you will be asked if you like to join the Trustee board with this responsibility; if you do not wish to become a trustee but are still interested in supporting, please do still apply but let us know.
