We are Disability Positive. We provide services, opportunities and a voice to people living with disability and long-term health conditions, and their families. We know it matters because we live with disability and long-term health conditions too.

There are so many different ways you can volunteer with us but however you do it, you’ll benefit from role specific training, gaining new skills and making an important and valued contribution to our work.

Have a look at our volunteering opportunities below, and if you can’t see anything that suits you please get in touch anyway – we are always happy to hear from talented people who might be able to help us.

The first step is to fill in an application form by clicking into the volunteer opportunity you wish to apply for. You will then be asked to come to an informal interview with our volunteer coordinator.
