Volunteering is a great way to support your local children and young adults' hospice whilst making new friends, gaining experience and having fun. If you are over the age of 18 and have a few hours on a Monday to give as a volunteer at our Hospice in Sutton Scotney, Winchester, then we would love to hear from you.
