For a over quarter of a century our unique network of Volunteer Co-ordinators has focused on recruiting and assisting volunteers, helping them to support clients in the community. This improves the health and wellbeing of individuals, reduces their isolation and allows them to maintain their independence.

Our Volunteer Co-ordinators can find the best opportunities to suit individual volunteers and can assist clients and organisations to find the volunteers that can help them. 

Volunteers can contact their local Volunteer Co-ordinator through a Locality Team Leader to find out about the different types of volunteering opportunities that are available. As a volunteer you could be partnered with someone in the local community who is socially or physically isolated and who needs social interaction and a friendly face to enable them to maintain their health and well being.

Volunteering with your local health team is another way to help. This can involve helping with motivating patients to maintain exercise programmes set by physiotherapists, meeting and greeting people attending clinics, chatting to patients in community hospital wards, giving health related information, running refreshment trolleys, doing administrative tasks or relieving carers by sitting with the cared-for.

Once you have established the area in which you would like to volunteer, we will assist you through the registration process, which involves obtaining character references and running criminal record checks. You will be invited to participate in training which will prepare you for your volunteering role in the community.  Volunteers are supported by their Voluntary Services Co-ordinator and will have the opportunity to undertake additional training.

We welcome volunteers of all ages, backgrounds and abilities and you choose how much time you want to give as a volunteer.
