This role involves helping with events nationally, and local in the Arun and Chichester area, throughout the year.

There is no minimum commitment. We are always grateful for an extra pair of hands to help with setting up events and tidying up afterwards. Times can vary, and you can choose to help all day or a morning/afternoon session.

What is involved:

• Signing up to volunteer at events local to you, is a great way to enjoy a day out while giving back to your local community.

• Raising awareness of Canine Partners and what we do.

• Visitors at events hugely benefit from their interactions with volunteers who are the ‘friendly, welcoming face’ of Canine Partners.

• A polite, confident, and personable manner.
