Are you looking for an excellent opportunity to gain fundraising experience in a busy but friendly fundraising environment?

Ambitious about Autism is the national charity for children and young people with autism. We provide services, raise awareness and understanding, and influence policy. We exist to enable children and young people with autism to learn, thrive and achieve. Our ambition is to make the ordinary possible for more children and young people with autism. 

To fulfill our new strategy we need to raise £10M over 3 years and this is where you can help!

We are looking for an intern/volunteer to support the fundraising team in raising income from a variety of sources, including events, companies, major donors and trusts and foundations.
