A volunteer role with us is your chance to give something back to your community, and a chance to change the lives of our companions by working directly alongside them.
You may already have skills that could help us, or you may wish to gain skills whilst volunteering with us, in order to help you – enhancing your work experience or CV or simply giving you confidence. If you don’t have the relevant skills we will be happy to guide and teach you.
You may want to help out in one of our shops, drive a van or help in our eBay shop. We are also open to offers of volunteering involving the running of our home and garden, particularly where you have a skill you can teach to our companions. All roles help us raise vital funds for the running of the charity or enhance the lives of our companions.
Volunteering has proven to be good for your health & wellbeing. By joining us, you will feel part of our team, make new acquaintances and friends, whilst making a difference to the lives of others.
