Corporate volunteers
We welcome the support of local businesses wanting to volunteer for us and there are so many ways to get involved! With so many companies offering their teams the chance to give up some time for a good cause, we have a range of different ways in which you can help. Although these opportunities are limited, we’d love to hear from you!

Ways to get involved with corporate volunteering
At our events
Help us with set up on the day before a CHSW event, or on the day itself. This could involve working on the registration desk, marshalling, or helping us pack down afterwards!
In the office
We are often in need of volunteers to assist with research, database inputting, preparing mailings or helping to organise events.
In our gardens
Help with the maintenance of our beautiful hospice grounds and gardens. This could involve clearing paths and public areas. Please note, we can’t always accommodate large groups at our hospices and these opportunities are limited to certain dates of the year.
Promote our work
Help us promote our events and raise awareness of our work by joining us on promotional activities or flyering days.
In our shops
As well as being able to help our customers find good quality bargains in the shop, our volunteers also help to raise much needed funds to provide expert care in our three hospices.
In our hospices
Help our dedicated Facilities team in maintenance of our three hospices. You could help by cleaning the ball pit in our soft play or by helping to sort our toy rooms.
