Volunteering with us
If you would like to support THAW or are unable to apply for one of our paid roles, then do consider volunteering in our friendly office. We have various jobs that just require a small commitment of time but can help our team significantly. This can range from admin support, to delivering Cosy Home Packs and food parcels, or becoming a board member.
Most voluntary jobs are part of our 'Energy Support Officer' role - see below to learn more - but we are always open to new ideas!
If you are interested, please feel free to contact us or just pop into the office.
