Hospice volunteers

There are many different roles at the Hospice, so why not put your skills and experience to good use.

You may be a mum with a young family, a student, retired or working full-time, however, we are flexible and so any of the time you are able to give can make a real difference to the care given to our patients and support given to their loved ones.

Volunteer roles include:

• Receptionist / administrator
• Coffee shop and ward refreshments
• Day Hospice
• Complementary therapy
• Patient transport
• Flower arranging
• Gardening
• Bereavement support / chaplaincy

'I started volunteering at the Hospice in November 2009, and as I approach my first anniversary I can say that deciding to help my local Hospice was on of the best decisions I have made. Being in such a caring environment gives me great satisfaction and I really enjoy being part of the team and helping them to give the very best care and support to patients and their loved ones. It is a real privilege to be working along side colleagues who go that 'extra mile' every day'.
