About this role

As a hairdressing volunteer you would work as part of a team who offer basic hairdressing services such as washing and styling patients’ hair. This makes a real difference to our patients’ well-being, especially for those who are unable to wash their own hair.

We need people who are compassionate, good with people and interested in enhancing our patients’ well-being. It would be useful if you have an interest in hairdressing. We would love to hear from people who have hairdressing/barbering qualifications too but this is not an essential requirement as training will be provided.

If you have a weekday morning or afternoon free each week and a passion for helping people then please get in touch.
