Throughout the year, we have numerous fundraising opportunities for which we rely upon volunteer support to ensure their success. These can include bucket and street collections, event support at organised sporting events, information stands at fetes and exhibitions, and representing ELF at presentations and talks.
On this page, we list all volunteer opportunities for which we need support. If you can donate a couple of hours of your time to volunteer at an event, then we'd love to hear from you! Please contact our fundraising team to register your interest. Please contact Development Manager Andy Jordan via andy@elfcharity.org.uk or 07508 717773.
Volunteers needed:

Event support - Quiz Night - ISCA Centre, Exeter EX4 8NT
Wed 18th Feb 5.15pm to 8.30pm
Our friends at Exeter Business Club are hosting a quiz night for ELF and we need 4 volunteers to help with the running of the evening.
This promises to be a great night out, organised by a friendly & welcoming group of business leaders collaborating to support our cause. The role includes selling raffle tickets and distributing quiz answer sheets.
Arrival time is 5.15pm but if you can't make it until later we'd still welcome your help! Volunteers can participate in the quiz if they wish and you can join the ELF staff quiz team for a jacket potato dinner which will be served during the event.
Charity Car Park - Barnfield Crescent, Exeter
We have 12 shifts per the year at this city centre car park which is handed over to local charities on the weekend. Working in pairs, volunteers collect set parking payments and manage the site. Full training is provided and we always strive to pair solo volunteers together where possible, so it's a great way to meet fellow ELF volunteers.
Shifts are 2 hours, between 8.30-2.30 on a Saturday and 9-1 on a Sunday.
Our 2026 dates still to fill are: Sat 4th April, Sun 3rd May, Sat 30th May, Sun 28th June, Sat 25th July, Sun 30th Aug, Sun 27th Sep, Sat 24th Oct, Sun 29th Nov and Sun 20th Dec
