Volunteer
Our volunteers come from all walks of life, bringing a variety of experiences, backgrounds, and skills which is what makes our team of volunteers truly extraordinary. No matter the role you are interested in, there is a shared common goal: together, we can make a difference for babies, children, young people, and their families across the East Midlands.
Giving your time to a good cause
Volunteers get involved for a variety of reasons. Some want to make a positive difference to the babies, children, young people and families that we support, others want to develop new skills and some simply want to meet new people and have fun. Whatever the reason, there are so many ways you can help, so if you have an hour to spare or a whole day, we would love to hear from you.

‘Volunteering at Rainbows is a truly rewarding experience. From my first day, it was clear what a welcoming and supportive place it is and what amazing work goes on here. My role means I see every week how much the Hospice helps the babies, children, young people and their families. Many people have said to me that it must be a sad place but on the whole it is the most uplifting place to be as it makes such a difference.’- Rachel
‘Volunteering at Rainbows has given me new experiences and insights and is incredibly manageable to fit in alongside my other job and other commitments, thanks to the flexibility of the role. There are voluntary roles within Rainbows to suit so many different people, and having the opportunity to get involved in such a brilliant organisation is certainly worth an investment of your time!’– Rebecca
