About Health Champion volunteering roles
We provide extensive training for our volunteers, covering mental health awareness and safeguarding delivered by Volunteering Matters Engagement Managers. Some volunteers will also have an opportunity to complete Royal Society for Public Health Level 2 qualification.
We are keen for volunteers to work with us alongside their communities, taking the lead in setting up preventative measures for healthy living and using their place in the local community to shape and influence the way volunteers can help others.
