We are immensely proud of Ann and the commitment she knows not just to Guy’s Gift, but to the whole community. Ann is passionate about bereavement support, and we know what a huge impact she makes with families attending our bereavement group sessions.
Thank you for all you do with Guy’s Gift, Ann. A true superstar!
Become a Guy's Gift Volunteer
As James H Doolittle states - “There’s nothing stronger than the heart of a volunteer.”
Why do people decide to volunteer?
Many of the wonderful Guy’s Gift volunteers join us as they want to “make a difference” or “share their experiences” or even “give back to a charity that supported their family”. All of these reasons demonstrate that these special people have strong and powerful hearts, with a desire to help.
Our volunteers may work directly with families, they promote us as Community Ambassadors, they deliver school and hospital resource packs and even act as trustees of the charity. Every one of them makes a huge impact on the lives of children and young people who have experienced the death of someone special to them.
We are always looking for new volunteers to join our growing team. If you also have a strong and powerful heart, with the desire to help bereaved children and young people in your local area, please do take a look at our volunteer recruitment page. You could join our team and be a fundraiser, walk leader or even group support volunteer. You may have a different voluntary role in mind, if so, do let us know. We are open to suggestions!
In order to join our team of volunteers, we do ask you to attend one of our induction days. The next one is on the 13th April 2024 and will start at 9:30am in Warwick.
If you would like to find out more about our volunteering opportunities and find out how to join our nextinduction day, please email me at volunteering@guysgift.co.uk.
We rely on donations to be able to provide support for bereaved children and young people across Coventry and Warwickshire.
If you would like to support Guy’s Gift either through a donation, volunteering with us or by creating a fundraiser please get in touch. You can find out more about supporting us here.
