Volunteer with us
Can you spare some time to volunteer and help us make time count for people with MND?
Volunteers play a vital role in helping us raise awareness and funds; driving our vision of a world without MND.
We have a variety of opportunities throughout the year for volunteers to get involved and the more volunteers we have the more we can do to support people with MND in Scotland.
Get in touch via email volunteer@mndscotland.org.uk to learn more about upcoming opportunities and how you can get involved.Meet Róisín

Ready to be part of something great?
MND Scotland has previously benefited from groups of people in the past who willingly gave up their time to volunteer and champion for our cause, and we are extremely grateful to them. However, with changes and recommendations from the SCVO (Scottish council for voluntary organisations), we will now need to request additional information to ensure due diligence is being carried out and the process is fair and consistent for all our volunteers.
