Volunteer with Age Concern Gateshead

If you have even a small amount of time to spare why not think about volunteering with Age Concern Gateshead?  

Our organisation depends on volunteers to help us provide all our services and, without them, our work would not be possible. We have a huge range of volunteering opportunities to choose from, and we welcome people of all ages and backgrounds. Volunteering is a great way to make new friends and learn new skills while giving something back to the community.
