Collection Box Co-ordinators
If you have very little spare time, but would still like to make a BIG difference to the charity, you could leave collection boxes with local businesses such as vets, petrol stations, chemists, bakeries, newsagents, pubs, hairdressers, garden centres or pet shops. The role of ‘collection box co-ordinator’ includes identifying potential box sites, picking up the boxes when they are full, leaving new boxes in their place.
A letter of thanks is sent to the businesses.
