Why volunteer for a children's charity?
Volunteering with GOSH Charity is a fantastic way to use your skills and experience to support the incredible work of Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). While none of our volunteer roles provide direct care to patients, the charity itself funds services and initiatives which provide vital support to patients, families, and hospital staff.
You don't need specific skills to get involved - just enthusiasm! Every day is a chance for you to make a big, huge, massive difference.
FAQ's:
Who can volunteer?
The lower age limit for volunteering with GOSH Charity is 18, due to our safeguarding policy and insurance.
Young people under 18 may volunteer in Event Maker cheering roles at public fundraising events when accompanied by a registered volunteer aged 18 or over. One adult may accompany one young person, and the adult remains responsible for them throughout the activity. Adults can register to become an Event Maker Team Member online here.
Do I need to be a UK Resident to Volunteer?
For those not resident in the UK, it is the responsibility of the volunteer to check their visa entry conditions in relation to taking up a volunteering role
I only want to volunteer at one specific event, how do I do that?
Complete the Event Maker team member application form above. Once approved, you can choose your preferred event through our volunteer portal (with the option to resign once the event is finished).
Can I volunteer with my colleagues, as a company?
