The Young Friends

---

What we do?

The Young Friends is a small committee of young professionals who have all been affected by Cancer. 

Over the last four years the YF's has raised over £28,000 and the money raised goes towards the purchase of medical equipment and services for the benefit of patients, their carers and staff at the hospital. 

This year they hosted once again the extremely successful golf day at Pyrford Lakes golf course where they raised over £5,000.

And later in the year will see a spinning class and the infamous boozy pub quiz.
​
They are looking for committed and engaging people to help them to inspire the younger generation into charity work and attending charity events.  Ideally members would be aged between 25-30 and have a keen interest in charity and hosting/managing events.

The committee meets virtually roughly once a month (this can increase in the run up to an event) and in person once a quarter - usually for a few drinks in a pub or dinner.

​No prior experience of working for a charity or having a career in events is necessary - all the YF requires is a proactive attitude and a willingness to help.

Above we have listed out our events for this year, but one of the great things about working for this charity, is what you do is limited only by your imagination (within reason of course!) and your drive to accomplish it! Not only will you be involved in meaningful work, but you will get to work with some amazing people for a great cause.
