LIVE ON PURPOSE
YOU can make a massive difference in the lives of vulnerable young people by volunteering, donating goods or money, arranging a fundraiser through Just Giving, sponsoring an item or event, and adopting us as your charity of the year.
VOLUNTEER
Volunteering is at the heart of our charity!
It doesn’t matter how much time you have to spare.
Anyone 13 - 65 years old can become a Ruff & Ruby ‘vollie’.
​
Get involved in something you are passionate about through our work with schools, ANTIDOTE hip-hop collective, SOUND ADVICE music studio & digital suite, #VIPMYCRIB bedroom packs, 'Worthy" mental health project, developing fashion ranges, delivering lived experience mentoring, office operations, admin or fundraising.
We have an extensive number of opportunities!
If you are over 18, an informal interview will be held to confirm your suitability. An enhanced DBS check (paid for by us) will also be required for all successful applicants before they can begin working with Ruff & Ruby. If you are under 18, a full risk assessment will be undertaken before your start date.
If you’d like to get involved, simply download & return a completed copy of our ‘vollie’ form.
​
If you're under the age of 18, you will also need to complete the permission form.
CORPORATE CONSIDERATIONS
We would like to honour our current business sponsor: AUTONET, who provides our charity vehicle, which enables us to conduct our daily activities and market the charity.
​
We are always looking for new businesses to partner with us and get involved with sponsoring various facets, that may be up your street, and within your capacity to help.
​
For some of our projects, we are aware that for local businesses there are potential partnership CSR benefits.
​
These are, but not limited to:
​

Most importantly, we’d like to say a huge THANK YOU for all your support.
We couldn’t do what we do without you!
