Volunteering at the Thames Hospice shop in Camberley

Advertisement

Although our shop has been in Camberley High Street for over two years several lockdowns and a new High Street build have caused a fair amount of disruption. Please do come and find us - it is a lovely shop and it is often referred to as a boutique! We are raising money for Thames Hospice We provide expert medical, nursing and therapeutic care to adults who have life limiting illnesses for people in East Berkshire and south Buckinghamshire. It costs more than £12 million every year to keep our hospice running. We rely on our community for over 50% of the funds we have to raise annually to provide our services free of charge, 365 days a year, to the people who need us. We have a 28 bed in patient unit and a purpose built Day Therapy centre in Maidenhead. We have a café on site so please, if you are in the area, come and visit us. With so many tasks to do in our Camberley shop, we are able to welcome up to five volunteers at a time so why not come and volunteer with us - it’s a sociable place to be! If you have some spare time please get in touch and come along for a taster session. Thank you for supporting us and we look forward to seeing you in our shop soon!
