Volunteers
We also love working with volunteers who help bring so much variety to the lives of our residents, guests and members. If you would like to volunteer in any of the following areas, please contact us. Additionally, if you could bring skills and experience that we haven’t listed, please get in contact anyway – you may be able to bring Yercombe Lodge something we haven’t even thought of!!!
There are opportunities within:
⤳ our fabulous grounds, gardens and greenhouse - which could be so much more accessible to our residents with a bit more help.
⤳ our buildings - help or manage our wonderful buildings, from a bit of painting and decorating up to full buildings management.
⤳ management - look after our fundraising activities or maybe this website and so much more.
⤳ the day centre – helping with a huge variety of activities from mosaic making to art work or maybe just have a cup of tea with someone who’d like a chat.
⤳ the residential / respite home – chatting to residents, playing board games and so much more.
⤳ And last but by no means least, the Trustees - we are always looking for skilled and experienced people to become new Trustees. At the moment an area of real growth that we would like to fill is Strategic Planning and IT.
