We are constantly searching for volunteers in order to keep the Newcastle Branch of Cats Protection working.
The existing members are all getting on a bit, and we need younger people to continue the work we started 20 years ago.
Last year we held a recruitment campaign over in the West End of Newcastle, and quite a few people came forward with the view of starting a brand new Branch. However, it all fell apart when cash became a problem due to the crash of the Icelandic Bank.
If you were one of those people who came forward last year, or just someone who has just found us, please think about joining us in the work we do.
So this brings us to what sort of roles do we need people to do.
Well, obviously at some point we will need admin people, but not just yet.
First we need people to do the 'ground work' roles.
These are the jobs that involve the actual cats. Jobs such as fostering, doing home visits, ferrying cats, and trapping feral cats.
Without these people its pointless have admin staff as there is nothing for them to do.
Although one role that does need to be filled very quick and thats fundraising.
Without Fundraisers, we wont have the cash to finance the care of cats.
So if you have done fundraising, or could lead a team of fundraisers, please contact me, via the contact us page.
Fosterers are vital, so if you have a spare room or no cats of your own, please consider helping us with this role.
Home Visitors, Ferrying and Trapping are roles vital to us, so again, if this is of interest please contact me either by using the contact us link.
