volunteer for us
We rely heavily on volunteers; we simply couldn’t deliver our work without their help, enthusiasm and commitment!
Reception/admin
Based on our main reception desk, volunteers welcome visitors to the centre, deal with enquiries and handle telephone calls as well as basic administrative duties such as filing and photocopying.

Volunteer mentors
Volunteer mentors help provide informal support to our service users during group activities and outside group activities. You need to be available for a regular slot each week.

Activity leader
Activity leaders lead a small group of adults in a group activity (e.g. a craft session, a visit to a local museum, or a work experience session). You need to be confident at facilitating a group of service users. We are particularly looking for activity leaders with skills in painting and decorating or cookery, though we are also open to find out what skills you have!
