Volunteers are Valued and NECESSARY!
Volunteers in the community, though unpaid, can provide various services from advise giving, support of disabled, youth or elderly, counselling, sessional work for all manner of projects. Many volunteers are training for professional qualification while others offer themselves to enable those in need to receive the much needed help. Whatever the focus or service group the volunteers need to understand the nature of the people they are supporting or helping. This is where training by The Lazarus Trust may help you.

The role of volunteers is vital to the helping of others in our community.
Throughout the history of the Western world the role of the unpaid worker has been valued and necessary to the support and care of those in need. Within the counselling and psychotherapy field the willingness of trainees to work while awaiting qualification is the way that many voluntary organisations have been able to continue to serve the community.
The Lazarus Trust, throughout the years it has worked in the community, has seen that services offering help within our community often cannot afford to pay for the help they so need.
