Volunteer Treasurer

What will you be doing?

CitiSEN 4u supports families across Birmingham and Solihull who have children with disabilities and additional needs. We have been running for roughly three years. We originally only covered north Birmingham but we have grew and grew to meet the need across the city and Solihull. We have 248 families on our books at the moment. We are currently self funded and voluntary run. There are three of us that run it on a day to day basis. Myself Valine and Kayleigh. We are all neuro divergent  being autistic and have adhd ourselves. We all have children ourselves who have various disabilities and additional needs.We do this by using a whole family approach. We don’t just provide activities and events for the children who have the disability and additional need we involve the rest of the family as well. In the past we have organised day trips to West Midlands Safari Park, Barry Island Beach, Black Country Living Museum, Ash End Farm and many more. We also provide activities and parties for Easter, summer, Halloween, and Christmas.We also organise parent carer wellbeing events as well as coffee mornings and meals out so they get time away to ask advice, help with form filling or just to have a good chat. We have a very wide range of service users across the city. Mainly children between 2 and 15 but we do not turn anyone away. Most of the children have a neuro divergent disability but we have children who are wheelchair bound, some who are deaf and blind and some non speaking or very limited children. We need someone who is able to guide us fufinacially who is able to set us up a bank account and apply for funding to take us to the next level.
