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!

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 fundraising office

We are often in need of volunteers to assist with research, database inputting, preparing mailings or helping to organise events.

At our hospices

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.
