For some roles we ask for a regular commitment but others we need on an ad hoc basis. Volunteering is a great way of trying something new, gaining new skills and experience, meeting people and giving something back. Looking to volunteer? Why not come along to our Recruitment Open Day on Friday 18 January 2019 to find out how you can help your local hospice. Volunteer Recruitment Open Day
