Volunteer with Us

We have a strong team of volunteers who regularly support our work and help us to deliver creative opportunities for our participants.  Below are the current volunteering opportunities on offer.

SingAbout & DanceMakers

We currently deliver 4 weekly SingAbout sessions and 2 weekly DanceMakers sessions across the Isle of Wight. With our existing groups growing in size, and the development of future groups, we are constantly on the look out for new enthusiastic supporters.

The role involves coming along to the group every week, enjoying yourself and supporting the group leader. The support comes through making teas and coffees in the break, setting up and setting down the room and supporting participants to ensure that they get the most out of the session.

Creative Futures

Creative Futures is a funded project which trains and mentors volunteers to work on a 1-1 basis with clients in residential care homes. Through working in a 1-1 setting, volunteers are able to build up meaningful relationships with the individuals they are working with, and ensuring that the work they deliver is person-centred for their client. Volunteers receive a complete training programme and are mentored by our Creative Practitioners, who have a wealth of experience in working with this client group.
