Our Move and Restore sessions use gentle, guided exercise to support people living with life-limiting illness. As a volunteer, you’ll be part of a friendly rehabilitation team, helping to create a welcoming, encouraging space where patients can take part at their own pace. You don’t need to be an expert — just someone who’s kind, supportive, and happy to get involved.

🧩 What you’ll be doing

  • Supporting exercise sessions alongside our physiotherapy team
  • Encouraging and chatting with patients throughout the session
  • Helping set up equipment and refreshments
  • Assisting patients to move safely around the space
  • (If you’d like to!) leading warm-ups or cool-downs once you feel confident
