Our Young Ambassadors

 Ambassadors support us by raising vital funds and also raising awareness of our charity in their local community.  Our ambassadors are the face of our charity.

Our charity ambassadors:

• Organise fundraising events in their area
• Attend cheque presentations
• Give short talks about our charity and the work we do
• Place collection boxes in local businesses such as restaurants and shops
• Identify new fundraising opportunities in their area such as Charity of the Year, Community trusts
• Source auction and raffle prizes
• Help out at workshops
• Inspire children and young people with Learning Disabilities to follow their dreams!

We are hugely committed to supporting our volunteers, who make such a valuable difference to our charity.  Ambassadors must be over 18, or if under 18 have a parent/guardian working alongside them.

We also require Celebrity Ambassadors who can act as a figurehead for our Charity.  An ambassador is not a Trustee and does not have any of the legal responsibilities of a Trustee or for the management of the organisation.  The purpose of an Ambassador is to lend high-profile support to the children and young people with learning disabilities supported by our charity. This will, in turn, support many of the charity’s functions like fundraising, campaigning, public relations, marketing and awareness-building for our cause.

Caleb - Young Ambassador (Porth)

Caleb was born in 2014 by emergency C Section at 34 weeks, and has brought nothing but joy to his family's lives and to whoever he meets ever since.   I knew Caleb would have Downs syndrome from my 15 week blood test during pregnancy.  At 28 weeks we were told my placenta was intermittently working; therefore Caleb was sometimes getting nutrients and other times not.  Despite this Caleb fought to be here; I strongly believe he fought to make a difference, to better our understanding, to better our world! He certainly achieved this for me the minute I saw him on the scan.  Caleb shares Follow Your Dream’s ethos’ and I know he will do well with your guidance and support.  He will strive to promote the Charity’s good work and be an active Young Ambassador.
