Volunteer with us

Volunteers are integral to Treetops Hospice and we have a variety of rewarding volunteer roles available across the hospice in our Wellbeing Space and Therapeutic Services teams, in our charity shops, lottery department, and at our events.

We offer a comprehensive onboarding process including an induction day and role specific training sessions.  People who volunteer within the Wellbeing team are subject to an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.
