Responsibilities

Volunteering as a Service User Representative will enable you to engage with the people who use our services. You’ll have a chance to listen to their thoughts, gather valuable feedback and truly make a difference in their experience.

  • Travel expenses - reimburse all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred in travelling to the place of volunteering and whilst carrying out any voluntary activities. 

 

Whether you can commit a few hours a week or want to get more involved, volunteering with Change Grow Live is a rewarding and meaningful experience.
