Pros

Good learning experience if you are interesting getting into the charity sector. Pay is ok but not groundbreaking. Most fundraisers earn around £1500 per month. Accommodation provided is ok. Mainly family type homes that are rented near the fundraising area.

Cons

Occasionally worked beyond the advertised 35 hour week due to travelling. Training is quite intense so you really have to be on the ball when starting in the job.

Pros

Nothing positive to say however this may change

Cons

I worked for the company as a student and was placed in company-arranged accommodation in Slough. The arrangement was described as free accommodation with earnings, but I experienced unexpected costs and a lack of clarity around pay. During my time there, I felt the working environment was highly stressful and unsupportive. After a short period without successful sign-ups, I was dismissed and asked to leave the accommodation with very short notice. Overall, my experience did not match what was initially communicated to me, and I would advise others to seek full clarity on terms before joining.
