Could you volunteer for us?<br />
We could not achieve all that we do without the tireless efforts of a team of committed<br />
volunteers who give their time to support the Charity. Volunteers help in many ways, from<br />
carrying out collections at the theatre to marshalling at marathons and setting up stalls as<br />
well as helping our busy calendar of events to run smoothly.<br />
We are keen to bring in more volunteers from all cross sections<br />
of the community and Charity Assistant Lucy Fisher is working<br />
hard to develop voluntary activity across all aspects of our<br />
work. Lucy says: “As summer approaches it looks set to be<br />
another busy year for Nottingham Hospitals Charity so we are<br />
keen to hear from volunteers of all ages, with a wide range of<br />
experience and interests, who would like to support our office<br />
and community activities. In return, we hope to offer a<br />
supportive environment in which you can enhance your skills<br />
and feel valued as part of a friendly<br />
team, by carrying out a varied role<br />
that is stimulating and rewarding.”<br />
