Volunteer Photographer needed!

 

As a Volunteer Photographer, you’ll support Shooting Star Children’s Hospices, primarily at external events. This could be big third party events like the London Marathon, or our own events like the Sunrise Walk. It might also include smaller events at our hospices. The images you take will be used across a range of mediums, both online and offline, to raise awareness of the work that we do, as well as to promote future events. This includes our social media accounts, and publications like Shine magazine and our annual review. If successful you would join our volunteer photographer pool, and would be notified of events that we need photography support for.

 

   The most fulfilling part of being a volunteer photographer, is getting to know the families and the children – it is lovely to see them at the events. It is an amazing organisation to be part of and the staff are so wonderful with everyone! Editing the photos and knowing that it’s a great photo – and hoping that the parent thinks so too.

A hospice sounds like a difficult and sad place to visit but there are so many happy moments and special memories being made there, and a lot of laughter. The team have been welcoming and I look forward to the events that I am attending.
