Volunteer testimonials

Carol, Reception/Welcomer Volunteer at Princess of Wales Hospital, Ely

"Volunteering Makes My Heart Sing! I love volunteering at POW - all the staff are so friendly and make me feel part of the team. After giving up work to be there for my parents, I have missed being part of a team and seeing my colleagues. Volunteering has given me back a broader outlook and I look forward to going in to see the team and helping the patients and staff. I would definitely recommend becoming a volunteer as it is so rewarding and definitely puts a spring in my step."

Work experience

Volunteering is different to work experience.

For our volunteering roles, we ask you to commit to volunteering regularly for a minimum of 6 months and undertake recruitment checks before you get started.

Work experience is a short term opportunity where you can spend time with our teams observing their roles.
