Volunteer
with us

We’re proud to say 90% of our volunteers said they would recommend others volunteering for us. Volunteers like Helle who said ‘Being part of the Helen & Douglas House family has enriched me in ways I could not have imagined.

Our 600+ volunteers give thousands of hours of their time and that equates to tens of thousands of pounds in value to the charity.
