Why Volunteers Matter

Helping us do even more for children and families

Our volunteers play a vital role in helping us go further by supporting events, raising funds and giving their time to help improve the lives of children in our care. With their support, we can make an even greater difference every day

You Can Help

Be part of making a difference

There’s always more we can do as a charity to help improve the lives of the young patients at our hospital – and that’s where you come in.

Our wonderful volunteers enable us to make an even greater difference to the children in the hospital’s care.

Volunteering for us is a great way to use your skills, time and enthusiasm to support the local community through the lifesaving work of the hospital. From fundraising administration to supporting one of our many exciting events, there’s something for everyone.

  • Support in a way that suits you – whether it’s a one-off event or a regular commitment, there are many ways to get involved.

We have a variety of volunteering opportunities to suit different skills and interests, including:

  • Event support – help us at exciting fundraising events and campaigns
  • Fundraising administration – assist with key behind-the-scenes tasks
  • Community engagement – spread awareness and connect with supporters

Whatever your availability and however you choose to help, you’ll have a fun, rewarding experience as part of our amazing community of volunteers. And it’s all for the good of the young patients at our hospital.

 

The volunteering opportunities available with us directly support our important charitable work helping sick children and their families at our hospital. The roles do not involve patient contact and only very rarely involve visits to wards.
