JOIN OUR VALUABLE TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS
Volunteering takes many forms and is enjoyed by a wide range of people. We are extremely grateful to all of our volunteers and the marvellous work they do. If you would like to volunteer, below are some of the ways you can get involved with St Kentigern Hospice.
Main hospice reception
Often the first point of contact for anyone ringing or visiting the Hospice. A vital role, welcoming visitors, answering the telephone, dealing with enquiries, and passing on messages.
Fundraising & Events
Members of our lively fundraising team work tirelessly all year round to raise the funds to maintain hospice services at St Kentigern. Volunteers are greatly valued by the team in both administration roles in the office and helping at events.
Our Volunteer Support Groups are a fantastic way to support the Hospice through fundraising. Call the Fundraising team on 01745 585221 to find out how you can help, we would love to hear from you.
Wellbeing Hwb
Volunteers help with general daily tasks, talking with patients and serving meals.
Drivers
Volunteer Drivers are required to transport patients to and from the hospice, generally once a week. Drivers need fully comprehensive car insurance, a valid driving license and permission from their insurance company to use their own car for this purpose.
Fuel expenses are of course reimbursed.
Retail
We are always looking for assistance in our charity shops. If there is a shop in your area, we cover much of north east Wales and you would like to join our friendly teams, call Val Corner on 01745 583170
