At Imperial Health Charity, we believe in the power and potential of volunteers – and we’re looking for passionate people who feel the same way. 

As the dedicated charity for one of the country’s largest NHS trusts, we manage a growing community of volunteers across five hospitals in north west London. Over the last five years we have developed a dynamic volunteering programme to help our hospitals while creating a rewarding experience for every volunteer who generously devotes their time to support our cause.

Right now we’re embarking on an exciting new journey as we adapt to changes in the way healthcare is provided across the country. At this crucial moment, we’re looking for talented and focused people to join our volunteering team.
