The Broomhouse Centre is an Investing in Volunteers organization highlighting the good practice in all aspects of involving volunteers in its work to provide services to the local community.
There are nine core projects: Beacon Club, Elderly Befriending, Youth Befriending, Young Carers, Adult Carers, Lunch Club, Crescent Kitchen, Carers’ Clinics, Young People’s Counselling Service and Mother & Toddlers Group. Volunteering opportunities are available in the Beacon Club, Elderly and Youth Befriending Projects, Young Carers and the Crescent Kitchen.
Why do we value our volunteers at The Broomhouse Centre?
Volunteers play a very important part with the organisation’s delivery of services over 12,000 hours were given to the projects last year.
Volunteers bring with them a refreshing variety of skills and experience and use them toe enhance service quality.
We believe in the valuable of voluntary activity as an important expression component of a free and democratic society.
Volunteering offers opportunities for participation to people who might otherwise be excluded. This helps us too as it allows us to increase contact with the community we service.
The Broomhouse Centre wishes to treat all volunteers fairly and not to discriminate unfairly against an applicant on the groups of any information concerning convictions.
The Broomhouse Centre is always keen to receive support from volunteers. For further information regarding volunteering opportunities please contact:
