Roles and opportunities

We have lots of different volunteer opportunities at ELHAP:

Volunteering with Children and Young People

ELHAP is a magical adventure playground for children and young people with disabilities. Volunteers will help the playwork team to support our children and deliver adventure play. You need to be willing to have fun, be silly and get very messy or muddy!!


Fundraise for ELHAP

We need volunteers to help fundraise for ELHAP. From helping the ELHAP fundraiser to organise events, to being a steward at one of your events to shaking a tin for ELHAP, we urgently need everyone to help ELHAP raise much needed funds. 


Gardening 

ELHAP is set in a five acre woodland site. We desperately need volunteers to help us look after and develop our fruit trees, our poly tunnel (we grow vegetables), plant flowers, cut the grass, cut back weeds etc. There is something for everyone - all you need is an interest and passion for gardening!


Driving the ELHAP minibus

We need drivers who have a full driving licence with a D1 category. Drivers will use the ELHAP minibus to collect and drop off visiting local schools as well as transport our service users to and from activities.
