Ways to volunteer
A few of the ways our volunteers make our centres a better place to be.
Welcome new visitors
Help people feel at ease in busy centres, starting with Stretford. A friendly welcome goes a long way on someone's first visit.
Support health sessions
Get involved with our Move More health and wellbeing sessions, making drinks, chatting to attendees and giving that extra bit of encouragement.
A friendly face at the door
Meet customers at reception and help them find their way around the centre.
You don't need experience, just a desire to help people feel more confident. That's what I wanted when I first walked through the doors. Now I can be that for someone else.Eva · Trafford Leisure Volunteer
