BECOME A VOLUNTEER. We have over 300 wonderful volunteers helping MABS as and when they can, but we always need more people who can spare some time to help us help others: Could you offer friendship and support to someone in need? Could you take a cancer patient to the hospital for treatment or a consultant’s appointment? Could you volunteer to do some light housework or ironing? Would you work in one of our charity shops from time-to-time? Could you walk a patient’s dog? Would you do some shopping or collect a prescription for a patient? Do you have good Spanish, can you help with spoken and written translations? Would you get involved in our special events to raise money for MABS? There are no special skills necessary to become a volunteer, just a desire to help those who need it. We have volunteers from all backgrounds, some whose lives have been touched by cancer others who have not. Initial training is provided and ongoing support is available. Give us a call and find out how you could do your bit.	MORE THAN JUST DONATIONS There are many ways in which you can get involved. Donating money is the quickest way – and of course we greatly appreciate it. But a little of your time is just as important - are you able to help with a few hours to help perhaps in simple ways? It means so much. If so, then please call or email us. We need: Drivers Translators Supporters/buddies Administrators Shopping/Prescription Collection
BECOME A VOLUNTEER Becoming a volunteer means more than just giving some time - it is also a great way to meet new like-minded people. Many wonderful friendships have happened between individuals and families, just by helping people at their time of need.
Drivers - mainly means helping to get people to a clinic, or collecting them from hospital. At critical times, a partner may be just too upset and stressed to drive, so a helping hand can bring great comfort.
Translators - to help patients and partners fully understand what is going on, or perhaps at legal, financial or other professional offices.
Supporters/buddies - this is one of the most important ways you can help. All our supporters have had cancer themselves so they have the experience and knowledge to pass on. And although having cancer will affect people in different ways, they will be able to quickly assess how best to help.
Administrators -
Shopping/Prescription collection - it means so much for patients and partners to know there is help at hand when they need it.
