Volunteer

We are incredibly lucky at the Samson Centre to have an amazing team of volunteers, without whom we would not be able to survive.

It could be lending a hand with the physiotherapists getting the equipment ready, or making refreshments, assisting with one of our street collections or operating the baric oxygen chamber. These are all essential jobs and we are extremely grateful to our volunteers who give up their time for the Samson Centre. The gift of time is invaluable to us and we really couldn’t do it without them.

We are always on the lookout for new volunteers, so if you are interested in supporting us, do get in touch.
