My Journey Begins at With Kids, Glasgow

After recently moving to Glasgow from N.Ireland a few months ago, I knew I wanted to get involved in a local charity by volunteering! 

I came across the With Kids website one day, and was immediately struck by their positive, vibrant atmosphere. Being part of a charity who are always enthusiastic about their work was definitely something that I wanted to be involved in.

My interest and experience in social media and online marketing meant that I was excited about bringing these skills into the With Kids team. Collaborating with fatBuzz alongside the charity enables me to contribute my own ideas about how we can reach more people.  

I’ll be working on generating content for publishing online such as interesting articles, videos, information for blog posts, designing e-newsletter templates and banners as well as having fun, and enjoying the chocolate treats that often circulate the office!

Volunteering for With Kids is a great way to meet new people alongside developing skills and helping vulnerable children and families in the East End of Glasgow. I’ll be blogging about the exciting things I’ll be getting up to over the next while, and make sure to keep an eye out for a video coming up so you can meet me!

Ladies Lunch Success!

With Kids would like to thanks everyone for attending their Ladies Lunch, held at 29 Glasgow on Sunday 27th January 2013.

Just over 100 ladies attended the lunch to support With Kids and helped to raise vital funds of around £10,000!



There are a few special thanks we would like to make in helping to make the event such a success!

A very special thank you to With Kids Ambassador, Kathleen McDermott, for hosting the lunch, and also to the entertainment - including the wonderful Edward Reid, semifinalist on Britain’s Got Talent and tribute band Could it Be Take That.

We would also like to say a special thanks to fatBuzz for organising the event!

Finally we are only able to help so many vulnerable children and families thanks to your continued support!

We'll be posting more photos of the lunch onto our Facebook page, so look out for yourself and make sure you get tagging!

If you would like to volunteer or fundraise for With Kids, please get in touch by calling us on - 0141 550 5770 or drop us an email.
