#volunteersweek

The Children’s Trust is celebrating Volunteers’ Week (June 1-7) and would like to thank and acknowledge the fantastic work of its volunteers throughout the UK.

Kyle on Oak House

This year marks the 30th anniversary of Volunteers’ Week, which is somewhat fitting as The Children’s Trust is also celebrating its 30th year as a charity.

Kacper on Maple House

Within the last year more than 560 people have selflessly given up an amazing 114,855 hours to help us. They have helped in a variety of ways, from giving support during children's therapy sessions, helping run fundraising events throughout the country, driving, volunteering in our charity shops, and admin duties.

Sarah and Andrew from the School for Profound Education

Our volunteers not only help practically but are an essential part of raising awareness of The Children’s Trust and the work it does. We are the UK’s leading charity for children with brain injury and supports hundreds of children and families across the country each year.


We are always keen to hear from anyone interested in volunteering and appreciate all skills from retail, marketing and finance to driving and gardening. If you would like to find out how you can get involved, please visit www.thechildrenstrust.org.uk/volunteer or call 01737 365002.
