Frequently asked questions:

Will I be able to choose what I do?
Together we will do our best to match your interests and skills to Age Concern Northern Ireland 's priorities.

Will I get any support?
Yes. Support for volunteers is as important to us as providing quality services. You will receive the support you need to carry out the tasks you undertake.

Will I be able to give enough time?
Yes. Wherever possible we will tailor your commitment to suit the time you have available.

I can't afford to be out of pocket
Although you won't be paid, we will do our best to meet your necessary expenses, and make sure you are not out of pocket.

Could I offer my professional skills?
Yes. From time to time we have different needs as various projects emerge. Just contact us and we can talk it through with you.

We'd like you to join us!
With around 6.6 million people over 70 in the UK , more older people than ever need our help. Why not give us a call to chat, or arrange a brief meeting to talk about where you can help. There is no commitment at this stage - we should be delighted to talk to you
