Volunteering is a great way to meet new people, learn new skills, develop existing ones and support the work we do in the community.
Who can volunteer?
Almost anyone can be a volunteer. We have a wide range of roles which suit different people and different skills.
How much time do I need to give?
It depends on the volunteer role you are interested in. Some people give an hour a week, other people do more. There are also occasional and one-off opportunities, e.g. helping out for a couple of hours at a fundraiser.
