Dorothy House Hospice - Volunteering

The Gift of Time
The hospice could not continue to care without the dedication of our volunteers. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the hundreds of people who give their time to help in the hospice, driving patients to and from the hospice, in fundraising and administration and in our shops. Their work saves the charity more than Ł1.1 million each year.

"Its very satisfying to be doing a job that's people-based and helping a charity rather than just working to increase a company's profits." - Jan Watterson
