The Chilterns Neuro Centre, a local health charity based in Wendover, is urgently seeking volunteers to help support its essential services for people affected by MS, Parkinson’s, and strokes, as well as their carers and families. This call for volunteers comes during Volunteers’ Week, a time to recognize and celebrate the invaluable contributions of volunteers.
For nearly 40 years, the Chilterns Neuro Centre has been a lifeline for individuals living with these challenging conditions. The charity provides crucial support and therapies that improve the quality of life for its members. However, with the growing demand for its services, the charity is in need of more volunteers to continue its valuable work.
Cathy Garner, Volunteer Coordinator at the Chilterns Neuro Centre, emphasized the vital role that volunteers play in the charity’s operations. “Our volunteers are the backbone of our charity and do so much to support our members,” she said. “Without their continued dedication, we simply wouldn’t be able to provide the life-changing service we do to so many people.”
The charity offers a variety of volunteer opportunities, including working behind reception, serving in the café, and running therapeutic leisure groups. However, it is currently seeking individuals to support its oxygen therapy service and fundraising team.
Volunteering with the Chilterns Neuro Centre is a deeply rewarding experience, providing an opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of those affected by neurological conditions. Volunteers also gain valuable skills, meet new people, and become part of a supportive and caring community.
If you have a few hours to spare each week and want to contribute to a cause that makes a significant impact, the Chilterns Neuro Centre would love to hear from you. To learn more about their volunteer opportunities, please contact them at 01296 696133 or email info@chilternsneurocentre.org.
