Volunteering Opportunities
We could not provide our service without our fabulous volunteers!Volunteering is a rewarding and enjoyable activity. It’s often described as a fantastic way to ‘get out’ or ‘give something to the community’, and is a great way to meet people and make new friends.
We have volunteering opportunities across the whole organisation, including helping with the running & development of the charity and roles helping to provide a wide range of services and support. Relevant experience, or an understanding of HIV are not necessarily required. Full training is given in understanding HIV and in undertaking the roles we have available.
The volunteer team is inclusive and supportive, and all new volunteers spend time working alongside experienced team members. However there are certain attributes which are required of all volunteers and these include:
- acceptance
- the ability to be genuine and non-judgemental
- an understanding of the need for absolute confidentiality
- commitment
- being able to work as part of a team
We’re looking for more volunteers in every area of our work. Volunteering is of mutual benefit. We aim to match your interests and skills with the needs we have, and to find a role that gives you the most enjoyment and fulfilment.
We pay out of pocket expenses for travelling to volunteer, and take account of individuals availabilities and time commitments.
If you are interested in volunteering, please get in touch using our online volunteer application form.
We will then get back to you, tell you more about volunteering with us and hopefully arrange for you to come along and meet each other.
