Volunteering at Wirral Hospice St John’s

Volunteering with Wirral Hospice St John’s can be both fun and challenging but it is always rewarding.

It gives people a chance to make new friends, learn new skills and support our local community.

Many volunteers gain valuable work experience which may help in other areas of their lives.

People of varying ages volunteer with the hospice. The majority of roles involve a weekly commitment, or you could join a volunteer bank where we call on you to cover absences or help at fundraising events across Wirral.

Volunteers are supervised by the team they are working with and supported by the Volunteer Services Team.

I’d really like to volunteer, what do I do next?

All applicants are asked to provide two references and, depending on the role, may be required to complete a DBS check.
