• Talk with members of the public about hospice services and ways they can offer support.
• Listen respectfully and compassionately when people share personal stories.
• Follow event briefings, health and safety requirements and volunteer guidelines.
We will provide full training and a detailed briefing before each event, including guidance on hospice services, donation collection, EFTPOS machines and QR codes.
