Volunteering with DAD is a chance to make a real difference - in your own life and in the lives of others. Whether you're looking to give back, build confidence, gain experience, or simply meet new people, we’ll support you every step of the way.
We welcome volunteers of all ages and backgrounds, including disabled people and those with lived experience of disability or caring. No matter how much time you have to give, we’ll help find a role that suits your interests, skills and availability.
We involve volunteers across all our projects - from admin and office support, to helping people access the community take part in social activities, or develop independent living skills.
If you’re unsure what role might suit you, we’re happy to talk it through and help you decide.
We want you to feel informed, supported, and valued from the very beginning. Our onboarding process is designed to be friendly, clear, and flexible, so you can start your role feeling confident and ready.
Here’s what happens after you express an interest:
We’ll work with you at your pace and make sure everything is accessible and tailored to your needs. Whether you’re new to volunteering or have lots of experience, we’ll be with you every step of the way.
