Volunteering with us.

We couldn’t carry out the important work we do without a committed and talented team of volunteers – people of all ages, and from all walks of life who help us care, support and raise funds.

 

Volunteers are a much valued part of our Hospice team, providing support across a wide variety of departments. Some help support patients and families, including bereavement support, some help in administrative roles while others keep the Hospice gardens looking wonderful!
