Volunteering

Our volunteers support patients and their families in so many wonderful ways. Our volunteers help around the Beatson hospital; supporting patients in the Wards, in the Day Case Unit, the Beatson Café, in our Volunteer Hub and in our Wellbeing Centre.  Our wonderful tea trolley reaches all of the day patients here at the Beatson as well as at Clinic P at the New Victoria Hospital and the Inverclyde Royal Hospital.

We also benefit from tremendous support in our main Beatson Cancer Charity offices. This varies from our volunteers who help with T-shirt collections for our large events such as Off The Beatson Track, as well as Cash Counting and Data Entry.

We also have event and fundraising volunteers who help out at Beatson Cancer Charity Annual events such as our Burns Support, Ladies, Lunch, Sporting Dinner and Off the Beatson Track, when we turn Glasgow yellow with our wonderful family and dog-friendly sponsored walk. Volunteers also help out at lots of different events in the local community as well as distributing our Beatson Charity Collection Cans to local businesses.

We also benefit from tremendous support in our main Beatson Cancer Charity offices. This varies from our Reception Volunteers who help with T-shirt collections for our large events such as Off The Beatson Track, as well as Cash Counting and Data Entry.

Volunteers really are at the heart of everything we do. We simply couldn’t do what we do without the help of our incredible volunteers.

Whether you are looking for a regular volunteering opportunity or just want to help out now and again, there are many ways you can support us by gifting some of your time.
