Volunteering
If you’ve never worked in care before and want a taster of what it might be like, volunteering is a great place to start.
What is volunteering?
Volunteering is an unpaid activity where you give your time to make a difference.
It can be for anyone. Whether you’re retired, want to learn new skills or would just like to give back to your community. By volunteering you will gain:
- valuable skills
- a sense of community
- work experience
- training and support opportunities
- confidence
- new connections.
As a volunteer you need to be:
- flexible - but also make it work around you
- honest
- trustworthy
- respectful.
