Getting Involved

Volunteering

Volunteering offers you an opportunity to give something back, have fun, make new friends and gain new skills. There are lots of different ways you can volunteer with us whatever your age, skill and background such as:

  • Working alongside our staff to support people who use our service to participate in activities in the community
  • Befriending a person who uses our services and doing things together (through our Best Buddies programme)
  • Joining your local branch network

As a volunteer you will play an important part in the success of KARE, in recognition of this we will support you by providing:

  • Advice and training prior to taking up your role
  • A volunteer position that matches your skills and interests
  • Ongoing support
  • Safeguards for you and those you support in your role as a volunteer

You can apply to be a volunteer by emailing volunteer@kare.ie or phoning 045-480200
