Volunteer Fundraising Officer - Woodhead Mountain Rescue

The Woodhead Mountain Rescue Team need a new Fundraising Officer - have you got the experience and enthusiasm to fill this crucial role within their team?

Although they are a front-line emergency service, they receive no government funding for their life-saving work As a charity, they have to raise all funds themselves to ensure they can be there for people in their hour of need - 24/7, 365 days a year.

They may be a charity run by volunteers, but they pride themselves on providing a first-class professional service to support the Police and Ambulance service

However, they need your help to fill a crucial role to help the team save lives and provide their emergency service

They are looking for a volunteer with experience in fundraising to help spread the word about the cause, and help raise the funds required to run the service. Without money in the bank, those emergency calls could go unanswered

Based near Penistone, and covering some of the northern Peak District, plus urban and farmland areas as far as Doncaster and Rotherham Their team of over 60+ volunteers fill a wide range of roles from on-call team members, to search controllers and event supporters

V O L U N T E E R O P P O R T U N I T I E S

Volunteer Fundraising Officer - Woodhead Mountain Rescue Cont.

They are missing a crucial member of the team though. It costs approximately £30k a year for the team just to ‘stand still’, and that doesn’t take into account any new large costs to help evolve in the future, such as a replacing a response vehicle, developing HQ initiatives and many more ideas they have

Search and rescue is always evolving and they need the dynamic approach of an experienced volunteer to help Woodhead MRT grow and evolve with the times

If this sounds like a challenge you’d relish - and you have a proven track record of fundraising in the charity sector – they would love to hear from you

If you are local to the team and relish the chance to be part of it, send your CV and a covering letter outlining what you could bring to the role and what specifically attracts you to volunteering for a Mountain Rescue Team, tojsmith@woodheadmrt.org

A shortlist of candidates will be invited to a face- to- face chat where we can share more about the fantastic team and see if you are the right fit

Independent Monitoring Board Volunteers

Do you want to gain new skills in a setting you haven’t considered before?

If this sounds like you, you may be interested in a voluntary role which provides insight into a world that few people see, where you’ll be able to use, and add to, your skills and experience.

You could join a team of ordinary people doing an extraordinary role: independently monitoring prisons and places of immigration detention across the country

They are looking for people who share their values and commitment and are keen to give back to their community. A good listener, you will always act with integrity, be committed to equality, diversity and inclusion, be able to analyse observed events and behaviour, make decisions and apply common sense. You will also need to work within a team, be a good communicator and have some basic computer skills

You will have unrestricted access to the prison, talk to prisoners in confidence, monitor day-to-day activity and report back on whether people are being treated fairly and humanely and being given the support they need to turn their lives around.

They are looking for people with a non-judgemental and open-minded approach, who can commit to making 2-3 visits a month, including a monthly Board meeting

Although this is an unpaid role, they pay travel and subsistence expenses, childcare or carer costs and, in certain circumstances, contributions towards loss of earnings

As one member says: “It could be the most rewarding thing you have ever done, and you can make a real difference to prison life I was unemployed when I started volunteering and didn’t know how I would be able to re-enter the workplace after being out of work for so long The experience and confidence I gained on the Board enabled me to get paid employment, which I now do alongside my volunteer role”

If you are interested in being the eyes on the inside, a voice on the outside, then book onto their next virtual open evening to find out more about the role and hear from some of our existing volunteers from both the prison and immigration detention estates

Barnsley set to benefit from the expansion of Targeted Lung Health Checks

Those most at risk of lung cancer to be offered NHS screening programme

From March 2023, people in Barnsley aged 55 to 74 who smoke or used to smoke and are registered with a Barnsley GP will be invited by letter for a free NHS Lung Health Check

The Targeted Lung Health Check programme will make its way to different neighbourhoods across the borough to identify any lung problems early, enabling earlier cancer diagnoses, and improving lung cancer survival rates.

Dr Sahar Awadallah, Barnsley Cancer Lead, said: “Local GPs, including me, are urging those invited to utilise this free screening service, as problems could start before a person notices anything of concern.

“Lung cancer often has no or few symptoms until a much later stage, so, if it is caught earlier, treatment could be more successful. Screening saves lives.”

A Targeted Lung Health Check is a two-stage process in which lung health is assessed A quick, initial phone call will take place to make sure the person is eligible for the programme, and then a respiratory nurse will conduct an assessment with the person over the phone

If identified as someone with a higher chance of developing lung cancer, they will be invited to have a scan that will take a detailed image of their chest and, if a problem is found, they will be referred for treatment.

Not everyone will need a scan, but those that do will be invited to a mobile scanning unit in a convenient location in their local community The mobile scanning units will be visiting the Dearne from March and will move to different sites across Barnsley until March 2024.

The programme is already operating in Rotherham and Doncaster. In Doncaster, nearly 18,000 Lung Health Checks and close to 10,000 initial low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) scans have been completed As a result, 193 cancers have been confirmed, 148 of which were lung cancers An impressive 75% were caught at an early stage with 74% of these patients suitable for curative treatment

Dr Jason Page, Clinical Director South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw Lung Health Checks, said: “We are thrilled to be able to expand Targeted Lung Health Checks into Barnsley

S U P P O R T S E R V I C E S

Support Services

“The success of the programme in Doncaster has undoubtedly saved lives, and now we are able to start the work in Barnsley with the intention of saving more

“We want to stress the importance of keeping your appointment when you are invited If you have received an invite, it is due to your increased risk of developing lung cancer or having other lung conditions, and this is an opportunity to get an early diagnosis and have a much better chance of survival”
