Volunteering
Whatever your skills or interests, there are plenty of opportunities for you to volunteer at Headway Devon and help to make a difference for people with brain injuries.
Volunteer with our clients
If you are a caring, patient, and understanding person who would like to help people regains skills and abilities lost after a brain injury, you should consider volunteering at one of our centres.
Our rehabilitation centres are busy, lively places, where our clients recieve specialist support and take part in rehabilitation activities in a safe and friendly atmosphere. With centres open Monday through Thursday, and Saturday mornings, there are many volunteering opportunities available.
Volunteers are a valuable part of the team at a centre, bringing new skills and discovering new talents along with the clients. There are monthly team meetings and volunteers have access to our training programme.
Out-of-pocket expenses are paid.
Centre locations and opening days are:
Monday - Exeter
Tuesday - Tiverton and Honiton
Wednesday - Exeter
Thursday - Crediton, Exmouth, South Devon (Torquay), Okehampton (opening September 2008)
Saturday - Exeter (Children's Centre)
If you would like to volunteer at one of our centres, please call us on 01392 211822, or email us at info@headwaydevon.org.uk
Help us to raise money
If helping out at one of our centres doesn't appeal, why not help us to raise essential funds by becoming a volunteer fundraiser. Every year we take part in many different fundraising activities, and the more help we have, the more money we can raise.
Fundraising is most successful when the fundraiser is doing something they enjoy, so we encourage our fundraising volunteers to follow their own path. We urgently need individuals to organise community events in order to raise funds and awareness across the county.
