This section is for our wonderful volunteers that have already been accepted into a volunteering program. It is here to explain the things you need to know about volunteering. (If you are looking to apply for a volunteering position,  please see our list of available roles).  

Please:

1. Read our volunteer handbook, then
   
2. Register. You can either fill out the paper form at the back of the handbook and hand or mail it in, or even better, register online. Go to the appropriate registration form here: 

Register as volunteer in a:

Shelter in Kensington & Chelsea, Hammersmith &Fulham or WANDSWORTH

Shelter in RICHMOND

non-shelter role (drop-in, women's group, events, office).

Even if you have volunteered before and have previously filled out the form, please do so again at the beginning of every new shelter season as it lets us know you have returned for the current winter season. We need to have updated records for insurance purposes, and updated records also helps us know how many volunteers we have and who to invite to our end of year Thank You event.

Paper copies of the handbook and registration form are also available from your volunteer coordinator or from Glass Door HQ. Please do ask us if you would like more detailed information on anything covered.
