What Our Volunteers Have To Say...
Volunteering with Central Cheshire Buddies Scheme has been one of the greatest opportunities of my life. I’ve been volunteering with them since I was 16.

Volunteering with Cheshire Buddies is something that I know I will never regret, every time I volunteer I learn something new about myself and what I can do.
As well as this, from the moment I started working here, it has opened my eyes up to the different types of people and the disabilities many individuals have.
It is my passion to help and care for people, so I just love helping this charity, you learn something new each time and I have developed many skills.

2020, Being a volunteer during this last year, has really helped me! Just to be able to go and do something and be with the children has made a huge difference. I have really enjoyed helping out with the sibling group.

I have learnt so much and done so much. I wanted to be able to give something back to the my community, it is so rewarding, to be part of Buddies has really changed my outlook and I am now really keen to start a teaching course for special needs children.
