We are always on the look-out for volunteers to join our charity. Our current volunteering opportunities are listed below, but please contact us to discuss your situation as there may be other roles to suit you and your preferences:
- Weekend & Morning Receptionist(s) at Moorside Nursing Home [POSITION CURRENTLY ON HOLD DUE TO COVID-19]- We need friendly volunteers to support our specialist dementia care home on weekends and also during the mornings (Monday – Friday), helping to cover the front reception area. Volunteers will support staff to deliver admin tasks and greeting visitors, acting as the first friendly face they see when they visit the home.
