We are looking for someone who can work in our office one afternoon a week over the next few months to help us promote our fantastic calendar of events. Preferably this day would be a Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon, but this is not necessary if you’re the right person for the job.

This would involve working with our Volunteer and Events Organiser to:

• Update our upcoming events leaflet as needed,
• Laminating and preparing posters for postering,
• Post our events on a host of online events websites, such as talks.cam and We’re All Neighbours,
• Sending emails to relevant groups and contacts based upon the type of event.

Work in a vibrant, friendly environmental charity, with expenses, training and mentoring. If you would like to apply, please send us a short letter describing your relevant skills and characteristics, availability, and why you would like the job to stephanie@cambridgecarbonfootprint.org.

The Open Eco Homes team is looking for someone to join the OEH publicity campaign, taking on the responsiblity of online promotion for the exciting May event which will take place on May 12/13 and 26/27.

The post requires someone who is familiar with facebook, twitter, blogging, linkidin, Cambridge network, love Cambridge, Cambridge cafe, yahoo groups, Cambridge uni and other what’s on sites etc., and who enjoys spreading the word online.

The foundation of the work will take place in April – in the run up to 2^nd May launch event – but will continue through to the open day event. If you are interested please email stephanie@cambridgecarbonfootprint.org.

Saturday, 18^th Feb, CCF Stall at Alternatives to Economic Growth Conference, the Centre at St. Paul’s, 10am to 5pm  –  we will need some volunteers for our stall at this exciting conference! The stall will be up all day, but will mainly require volunteers during breaks. This might be particularly convenient if you are attending the conference and want to help out in between sessions.

Saturday, 25^th Feb, CCF Stall at The Green Key Pilot Launch, Meadows Community Centre, 11am to 4pm. –  The Green Key is a new project being spearheaded by Helen Brooks of the City Council focusing on sustainability in the North areas of the city. All the stalls at this event are aiming to be interactive, and CCF will focus on carbon footprinting for attendees.

For both of these events we will need help with transport and people to engage attendees at the stall. If you have attended our stalls training and can help, get in touch with Stephanie.

CCF is holding its first book swap at Bharat Bhavan on Mill Road on 10th March, 2012 and we’ll need 12 volunteers for this fun event. If you could help for half or all of 12:30 to 4:30pm, in the kitchen, organising books on the various genre tables or taking admissions at the front door, we need you! (Note that the actual event is 1pm to 4pm, the extra half hour on either end is for set-up and take-down).

We would also benefit from people who could make a few baked goods that we could sell on the day of.

Email stephanie@cambridgecarbonfootprint.org if you can bake or be at the event to help out.

Help us promote this event too!

Download our event poster and put it up anywhere in your neighbourhood or workplace (even your front window!) that would be a great help.

And invite your facebook friends to the event here.
