Volunteers are an essential part of our charity and we couldn’t operate without their dedication and hard work.
Volunteering boosts your wellbeing, skills, and CV, while supporting your community. We value diversity and welcome all, especially those with lived experience. Some roles require DBS checks.

There are various roles available depending on your availability, ranging from a few hours per month to attend charity tin collections or supporting at an occasional event, through to a few hours per week to be part of a fundraising committee who plan and co-ordinate events in your local town.
