We are always looking for Volunteers….

Would you like to volunteer your services?

The Only skill that is absolutely necessary is, that you have a genuine desire to care for Children and young people with “Special Needs” Those using the Centre range in age from 6 months to 20 years, with a variety of disabilities, both physical and intellectual. Presently about 110 kids attend on different days, usually for 3 afternoons per week..  The volunteer will help the kids and young people with, Painting, drawing, puzzles, reading, games, and assist with the staff on outings for them, usually to the beach, Zoo, Picnics, and parks. The volunteer may also from time to time assist a staff member in bringing the children to specialist appointments.    The charity is very flexible and if a volunteer feels they may also have something else to contribute that would be of benefit to the children or the families this also can be looked into.
