Volunteer Communications Roles

Volunteer Communications Roles 

GMCDP has a great volunteer opportunity for someone who enjoys working in communications, to use their skills to promote and help increase the profile of our service. As an organization, we focus on those who have experienced disabling barriers. We are looking for a driven person who is both creative and productive. Working as part of a small team, we are looking for self-motivated people that could help support the work of GMCDP’s new Communications Worker.  (Please see the full role description attached to this page) 

 

Hours: 4-8 hours a month to get the best out of the experience but this is entirely down to you.  

Location: Manchester and/or Remote

Days: Flexible 

 

About Us 
Greater Manchester Coalition of Disabled People (GMCDP) is a disabled people’s organisation (DPO) which is 100% run and controlled by disabled people (including our staff, members and Executive Council). We are a membership organisation, and our members are the core of our organisation, informing, shaping and guiding all the work GMCDP does. Our mission statement is: 
“To promote the full inclusion of disabled people in society and challenge the discrimination and oppression of disabled people.” 

 

Will I get my Access Needs met?
GMCDP prides itself on supporting disabled people to access our projects. We understand that all needs are different and therefore require different adjustments. We will support you to understand reasonable adjustments and how these can effect your volunteer work. We will cover most access costs.

Examples of access needs covered previously:

  • Transport to and from your volunteer role. 
  • BSL interpreters. 
  • Easy Read / Plain English materials.
  • Large Print materials. 
  • Active chat box on Zoom calls. 
  • And many more... 

Project worker Gemma will be happy to help with any access questions.
