Volunteer Roles

We need volunteers to undertake a number of core roles at Oblong. These include:

Centre Support Volunteer – This is an important role in ensuring that the centre is welcoming and that support is provided to those who use it. The role includes reception and administrative duties.

Graphic Design Volunteer – Graphic designers can do work on such things as the design of newsletters, magazines, business cards, leaflets and posters. It is hoped that in becoming a graphic designer with Oblong you will be able to support other organisations and enable Oblong to achieve its aim to support the development of grassroots organisations.

Web Design Volunteer – We need web site designers to work with other not-for-profit organisations in Leeds to help promote their services and activities.

Video & Animation Volunteer – Oblong has identified that there is a need for Video & Animation Volunteers to assist in the promotion and business of organisations in the voluntary sector throughout Leeds.

Small Groups Development Volunteers – As a part of the the Member Projects Working Group, you will help small community groups (click on 'member projects' in the top bar for examples of the kind of project we work with) in planning their activities and in making funding applications. We meet every Tuesday at 12pm.
