Welcome to our volunteer programme

Why do we need Volunteers?

Our valued volunteers are essential to the continuing operation of the Chaianne Ramage Foundation and Hope Cottage.

We treat our house as a home. As with any home, the work is never done ! Whilst we provide an excellent facility to the families, we often experience constraints which prevent us at times on the rare occasion, from providing the quality personal assistance and support to the families, that only a special type of person can offer.

Volunteers are an integral part of the support team to help keep Hope Cottage safe, clean, comfortable and welcoming for the families in need.

Who are our Volunteers?

Volunteers are the heart of our Chaianne Ramage Foundation and they come from all areas of the community; students through to senior citizens. Although they assist in the day to day operations of the House, more importantly, they provide a cheerful face and sympathetic ear whenever needed.

Whilst formal qualifications aren't essential, it is a requirement that volunteers have their Positive Notice 'blue card' for child related employment. We can submit your application once we have sighted certain forms of ID.

Chaianne Ramage Foundation Volunteers are people of all ages, and are both men and women. A friendly manner, willingness to help, and a cheerful and practical approach are invaluable. Volunteers are very special people; highly valued for their commitment and service to others.

Dedication and commitment define the strength of Chaianne Ramage Foundation Volunteers.

What do Volunteers do?

Most of our volunteers assist with day-to-day chores such as general cleaning, maintenance and gardening. Volunteers perform all sorts of different tasks. Sometimes it can be very busy and sometimes quiet. It is important to remember that every contribution, no matter how small, goes to make our Cottages a happier and better place for families in need.
