Volunteers

The Carers’ Support Centre is committed to policies of equal opportunity in delivery of its services and in its employment practices and does not accept discrimination in our work with Carers and with local older people.

Here at the Carers' Support Centre we believe that volunteers can do almost anything, from providing people with information to befriending and supporting a Carer. Volunteers make a vital contribution to all aspects of community life.

We are constanly on the look out for new Volunteers to join us!
