Volunteer Roles
We have lots of different volunteering opportunities in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire – from working directly with our patients and their families in the hospice, to being out in the community at one of our charity shops. Each role offers the chance to gain experience, give something back and make a difference.
Nottinghamshire Hospice is fully committed to supporting and promoting equality, diversity and inclusion best practice within our staff and volunteer workforce, as well as with our patients and supporters. We warmly welcome those from all backgrounds – this diversity is important for our journey and values and enriches the services we offer.
We particularly welcome applicants from minoritised ethnic communities, LGBTQ+ communities, applicants under the age of 40, applicants with disabilities, and male applicants for clinical roles, as they are currently under-represented within our workforce.
Volunteer Retail Assistant
Thanks to our amazing retail volunteers, our shops generated over £1 million last year. By volunteering your time in one of our shops you can be part of the team, make new friends and support your local community.
Volunteer Driver
As a volunteer driver, you’ll be an essential part of the hospice team, responsible for collecting patients from their homes and taking them to the Therapy and Wellbeing Service, seeing them safely into the hospice and collecting them after their session. If you’re over 21 years of age, have your own car and would like to help others with your friendly personality and good communications skills, we’d love to hear from you.
Vehicle Checks Volunteer
As a Vehicle Checks Volunteer, you'll be helping to ensure that our transport fleet is fully operational for our staff to visit patients and families out in the community. Keeping our vehicles in safe working order means we can provide our care to the people who need us and deliver our hospice services with greater effect.
Volunteer Gardener
If you’re passionate about the outdoors, especially gardening, then this is the role for you! Our beautiful garden at the hospice brings joy and happiness to many people and we’re looking for volunteers to help us keep it looking its best with pruning, planting and general grounds maintenance.
Support Services Volunteer
Support Services volunteers provide emotional and bereavement support to adult carers, family and friends of our patients. We’re looking for people who are over 21 years of age, are good listeners and able to offer emotional support.
Volunteer Counsellor
As a volunteer counsellor, you’ll help patients and families take on board the changes they face, and support bereaved families following the loss of their loved one. Providing this service is an invaluable part of the hospice and your role will be guided and supported by the Support Services Development Manager.
Meet and Greet Volunteer
The Meet and Greet Volunteer role ensures that patients and visitors have a warm and friendly welcome when they come to Nottinghamshire Hospice. The role involves greeting visitors, notifying staff members that a client has arrived and escorting people to the necessary places in the hospice. It is a quiet role as visitors can be infrequent so would therefore suit a friendly person, who is content with sitting in a calm and caring environment for periods of time.
