Volunteering at Ceartas:
Ceartas has a small but loyal team of volunteers who support the work of organisation.
The De Cafés and ABI Café are kept running by their volunteers. Volunteers greet people as they arrive, get coffees and teas, help them with coats and all the little things that make people feel welcome. This enables Ceartas staff to ‘work the room’ and find out if there are any issues that need information, or a referral to advocacy.
Our volunteers build strong relationships with people at the Cafés, and they are welcomed like old friends every month, and we try to support our volunteers with information, access to training that supports their role, and of course the occasional barge trip or Christmas lunch is provided free of charge!
We also have occasional volunteer opportunities, like admin tasks, distributing publicity materials, even things like helping out at big events.
If you are interested in volunteering for us, please contact Ceartas here.
The main volunteer organisation in East Dunbartonshire is East Dunbartonshire Voluntary Action (EDVA). EDVA has a wide variety of volunteering opportunities, including Befrienders. If Ceartas does not have any suitable volunteering opportunities for you, please contact EDVA.
