Volunteering makes the world a better place and provides an opportunity to meet people. Evidence shows that it could give you a greater sense of purpose, decrease your risk of dementia, help you feel more connected to others, make you happier, decrease stress levels and could even make you live longer. The activities of the Trust rely on volunteers from the local community. Every minute that you are able to give, whether it be several hours per week or half an hour per year, is very welcome and appreciated by the Trust.

There are many opportunities to get involved in Trust activities.
