Preferred hours per week/time commitment: 2 – 4 hours, once or twice a week. Flexible on days and times, including weekends, mid-mornings and early afternoons.
As a volunteer with Creative Support we offer training for your role, access to a volunteer supervisor, an induction, a monthly volunteer newsletter, and an online volunteer’s peer support group.
