Volunteering

Volunteering can enable you to develop new skills, experience, see what the possibilities are for you in the future and gain confidence in the abilities that you have.

 

There are two main parts to our volunteer development work: 

• We support disabled people living in Derbyshire to find volunteering opportunities, with local organisations, which meet their needs. There are a range of volunteering opportunities out there from advice and information, advocacy, retail, administrative work, care support, counselling, driving, working with animals, mentoring, arts and culture, and conservation work.
• At Disability Derbyshire, we look for new volunteers to join us from time to time. Volunteers are involved in working as receptionists, running our Information Service, providing administrative support and working as IT mentors. We may develop new volunteering opportunities in the future.

There may be volunteering opportunities going with other services that we provide. Please look at our other Web Pages: Peer Counselling, Go to the People Project and Disabled People's Mentoring Project based at our Shirebrook Office.
