Here at The Kirkwood we provide a range of care and support aimed at improving the lives of people affected by any life-limiting illness in our local communities.  We are extremely fortunate to have the support and commitment of over 800 dedicated volunteers who work alongside staff in a variety of roles and departments.  The Kirkwood Team work tirelessly to support people to improve their quality of life; remain as independent as possible; and maintain their dignity until the very end.  Families and loved-ones are also supported during the illness and in bereavement.

We couldn't do what we do without our loyal volunteers!  We aim to offer the very best  volunteering experience, including a comprehensive induction; an annual education & training programme; long-service awards; and volunteer & staff celebration events.    We'd love to hear from you if you can spare some of your time to help Kirkwood care and extend its reach to others that could benefit from the services we provide.

As a Kirkwood volunteer, you will be helping us to provide care to people from your own community who are affected by a life-limiting illness.  A little of your time can make a massive difference to what we can achieve!  Is it your time to make a difference?  We hope to hear from you soon!
