Volunteering.

Volunteers play a vital role in the work of Bell View.  We currently have over 75 volunteers and without their enthusiasm and support we would not be able to offer such a comprehensive range of activities and services.

Volunteers support our work in the following areas:

The Hub community cafe:  helping to serve tea and coffee, light lunches and cakes.  No cooking required!

Community transport:  Volunteers take people where they need to go, either using our community transport or using their own vehicles.

Gardening:  Volunteers help in our 'potting shed' garden, growing fruit and vegetables and also with our therapy garden.

Luncheon clubs and coffee breaks:  Volunteers help with the sessions in Belford, Seahouses, Beadnell and Bowsden.

Food project: Volunteers help prepare vegetables, collect and distribute food.

Fundraising events:  We hold regular events throughout the year and volunteers help with selling raffle tickets, running stalls, serving refreshments.

Reception and administration:  Volunteers help with tasks such as photocopying, collating monitoring figures, filing, answering the phone.

Volunteering can be flexible and fun - if you’re able to give us an hour a year of your time, you might be our next volunteer-in-waiting!
