Volunteer With Us

JOIN OUR TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS AT CANCER SUPPORT GROUP 06

Whether you have just a few hours to help at an event or can commit to an ongoing role, you can provide invaluable support to individuals and families on a cancer journey.

WHY VOLUNTEER WITH US?

• Make a lasting impact by supporting those affected by cancer
• Gain valuable experience in listening, support and community work
• Meet amazing people and be part of a caring team
• Give the time you want, when and how it suits you

Whatever your skills and experience, there is a way for you to help.

Volunteer Roles:

• Active Listeners: Provide emotional support through phone calls, home visits or hospital visits; no prior experience necessary, just a willingness to listen and help.
• Publicity and Outreach: Help us spread the word! Join the team that distribute flyers, post to social media, take event photos, write news articles, or contact medical professionals and social organisations.
• Fundraising: Organise fundraising events, host coffee mornings, develop fundraising ideas and initiatives – CSG06 is self-financed, and we rely on fundraising to continue our work.
• Language assistance: Interpret at medical appointments, assist with social security queries, translate informational documents.
• Community Support: Help with essential tasks such as collecting prescriptions or groceries, drive to medical appointments, offer light assistance around the home.
• Event management: Help set up special events for clients or volunteers, run our drop-in meetings, organise and staff our presence at forums and fairs.

All volunteers working directly with individuals affected by cancer must first complete our Active Listener training (three days – one weekend and one follow-up day – plus ongoing support throughout the year). Before joining the training, you are invited to familiarise yourself with the association by volunteering in another capacity.

We look forward to welcoming you to the CSG06 team.
