Volunteer noun [c]
A person who does something, especially helping other people, willingly and without being forced or paid to do it Volunteering must be a choice freely made by each individual. We define volunteering as any activity that involves spending time, unpaid, doing something that aims to benefit the environment or someone. People choose to volunteer for a variety of reasons. For some it offers the chance to give something back to the community or make a difference to the people around them. For others it provides an opportunity to develop new skills or build on existing experience and knowledge. Giving to others can also help protect your mental and physical health. It can reduce stress, combat depression, keep you mentally stimulated, and provide a sense of purpose. While it’s true that the more you volunteer, the more benefits you’ll experience, volunteering doesn’t have to involve a long-term commitment or take a huge amount of time out of your busy day. Giving in even simple ways can help those in need and improve your health and happiness. Our voluntary staff are an integral part of the hospice team. We are very proud of them and thank them for their wonderful commitment. They are regularly referred to in letters of thanks from families and friends of the hospice patients, who remember them for their care and concern.
Approximately 250 voluntary staff work in several different areas in the hospice, providing an essential service. We also have teams at our two charity shops in Mansfield and Sutton. If you would like to join us, please email: contact@johneastwoodhospice.org.uk for an application form.
