Volunteering opportunities:

Whatever your skills may be, we are confident that we can match you to a volunteer role that is rewarding, makes a difference to local people’s lives, builds confidence and offers the opportunity to spend quality time away from work or a busy lifestyle.

• Digital champions, provide help and guidance to people who are not confident with technology or do not have the means to access technology, or to assist with our web design, social media, marketing

What are we looking for from you?

• We are looking to hear from you if you are a compassionate individual with personal alignment to our mission and values.
• Sensitivity, empathy, tactfulness and attention to detail is key in helping to create safe spaces where people can connect and experience a sense of belonging.
• We have no request for a minimum time commitment from you but do ask that your commitment is consistent.
• It's important that you have an awareness of personal boundaries and the limits of your own capabilities and role. You must be willing to ask for support where needed.
