Volunteer First Aid Coordinator

National Childbirth Trust (NCT) – Bromsgrove & Redditch

Description of the role

Are you organised, detail-oriented, and passionate about helping parents access vital first aid training? We’re looking for a Volunteer First Aid Coordinator to manage and promote our First Aid courses. This is a remote administrative role that’s perfect for someone who enjoys working independently to make a real difference in their community.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Deciding whether your branch will offer in-person or virtual First Aid courses.
  • Coordinating with First Aid trainers to secure course dates (we suggest aiming for one course per month).
  • Setting up courses using our online booking system.
  • Promoting and advertising courses to local parents and NCT antenatal course attendees via social media channels and email.
  • For online courses, you’ll receive Zoom links from the trainer to distribute to attendees and provide the trainer with a list of expected attendees.
  • Repeating this process to ensure a continuous offering of first aid courses.

Practical Considerations

This is a flexible role designed to fit around your existing commitments. You could volunteer with as little as 1 hours per week, though the exact time commitment will depend on the frequency and duration of your First Aid courses.

Any specific requirements

  • Must live or work locally.
  • Must be 18 or over to apply.

Where is the opportunity based?

The opportunity is a work from home role.

When is the opportunity available?

Days are flexible – volunteering days available to be discussed between you and the organisation.
