No known restrictions, although this may depend on the individual workshops. We will endeavour to overcome any accessibility restrictions, and work to fitting volunteers with workshops they feel comfortable to assist with.
No previous experience needed, and guidance and/or training will be given where required. An ability to connect with people would be beneficial. A willingness to try new things and collaborate with workshop facilitators and participants would be useful.
Our volunteers will have opportunities to work with and alongside a diverse group of people, potentially supporting patient, staff and community engage with arts provision within the hospital setting. Therefore there will be communication, teamwork, and caregiver skills gained.
