Maintenance Volunteer - Cross Site

REF: 69e8a4eebe7b7

At Moya Cole Hospice, there’s one thing that motivates us, and that’s providing excellent care and support to those living with or affected by life-limiting illnesses. We’re continuously developing our plans for delivering world-class, innovative care and to ensure Moya Cole Hospice is in the best shape possible for future generations. You’ll be challenged, inspired, and empowered to help us achieve our purpose and to play your part in making a difference.

We also rely on our army of over 500 volunteers who support us in so many ways – from supporting staff on our wards and working in our charity shops to tending to the hospice gardens.

We simply couldn’t continue to provide our care without their help and are hugely grateful to each and every one of them for all their support.

Moya Cole Hospice

Organisation description:

We are a charity, and we support patients right across Greater Manchester from our two hospice sites in Heald Green, Stockport and Little Hulton, Salford. We also have dedicated Hospice@Home and specialist community teams who care for people in a place they call home. The support we provide is based around the individual needs of the person and what is important to them. Some people are referred to us for care right at the end of their lives, perhaps after a hospital stay. For others, we help by managing their symptoms so they can continue to live as full a life as possible. We have patients who receive outpatient support from us too. We also provide emotional support – helping people come to terms with the results of their diagnosis, and also supporting families including after the death of their loved one.
