Volunteering with VoiceAbility is ideal for people who have or want experience in human rights, health, care and wellbeing - but we care more about your values and empathy than your level of experience. The role is a hybrid role, as we have no main "office base". Volunteers are expected to volunteer in and around their local area, and must be able to travel by themselves.

Can you help promote services to local people in your community? Can you help at events and awareness raising sessions?

You could help improve access to services in your community.

This role is ideal for people who already have a connection to their community or would like to build one.

The Service Team Volunteer role supports in the delivery of advocacy and other services by:
• Helping clients understand about advocacy
• Attending events and awareness raising activities
• Networking and promoting our services and organisation
• Signposting to other services
• Building professional relationships and partnership working
• Supporting our community engagement programmes in your local area

Volunteer, Ben’s priorities changed after a serious illness: “I wanted to give something back. It’s really rewarding as you get to use your knowledge and skills for a really good purpose.”

You’ll develop skills in communication and confidentiality, add experience and knowledge to your CV, and know you’re making a genuine difference to people’s lives.
