Volunteer at FolkStone

FolkStone clients face daily challenges that may encompass issues of mobility, health, mental health, acquired brain injury or dementia.  We have opportunities for volunteers who could accompany a client on a walk; on a day outing; or who will spend some time reading, playing cards or doing some container gardening.  All of these activities are a tremendous benefit for someone whose activity level is restricted. 

If you are a caring individual who is willing to give the gift of time, please provide the following information and join the FolkStone Volunteers! All fields are required.
