Can you spare 3 hours a week? That's all it takes to become a volunteer at NGH

Our volunteers are an invaluable part of the hospital team. Working with us in a volunteering role means you're playing a part in delivering the best possible care to our patients and their families, whether you're providing admin support in an office or working alongside our ward teams.
  • If you've started looking for work or want to get back into it after a break, volunteering can really help. We'll support you as you develop your skills and confidence - and your CV will really impress potential employers.
  • If you've retired but you're not quite ready to put your feet up, we'd really value your experience and time.
  • Meet people from all walks of life. Whether it's our staff or our patients, there's never a dull moment when you're surrounded by people of all ages from all sorts of backgrounds. Volunteering in a hospital gives you an insight into other people's lives and so many of our volunteers say it's a real privilege
  • Give something back. What better place to give something back than your local hospital, the one place that touches everyone's lives in some way?

    We require a minimum of 6 months commitment for 3 hours a week and you will be required to complete a mandatory training eLearning course.

Please specify on the application in support information your preferred hours of volunteering.
