For 40 years, Butterwick Hospice has supported local people and communities across our regions of Teesside and County Durham. We provide holistic care for children and adults living with a life-limiting illness, as well as support for their families and loved ones. We believe in embracing life’s journey with compassion and care and aim to make every day the best it can be for each of our patients and their loved ones.
Have a day or two free now and then?
If you are looking to help one of your local charities, but only have the occasional day free, we would love to talk to you about volunteering with us. We’ll see if we have any events that you may be able to help us with, or if you want to be added to our contacts list for any future opportunities we may have.
Our fundraising events take place several times a year, normally over 1 – 2 days. We would be looking at help with hosting the event and sometimes with prior preparation and set up/dismantling.
We don’t ask for any experience or special skills, just friendly, reliable people that can get stuck in and have a bit of fun!
