How you can help
Volunteer
Our Volunteers and Community members, aged 18-81, make the difference and you can too!
Our organisation is run by dedicated and talented team of Volunteers and Community members. With their loyalty and commitment the centre has developed into a thriving ‘home from home’, a friendly, warm and welcoming environment. Our trips are incredibly popular but without Volunteers they simply could not happen.
We are also proud to host several students on Health and Social Care placements each year, gaining valuable experience.
The benefits of volunteering
Each Volunteer/Student receives Free Training in Safeguarding, Food Hygiene, Fire Safety and Health & Safety alongside Team Building initiatives, respite and valuable experience within the Care Industry and are encouraged to attend regular reviews/meetings and lead on their own initiatives.
Positive Individual outputs include: Pride, confidence, sense of belonging, community spirit and enhanced skills, developing your employment prospects!
