Volunteering
All of our people are unpaid volunteers. We have no paid staff. Our volunteers make a real difference to others, learn a lot, make new friends and have fun. Find out more about volunteering...
As our charity grows and our work increases, there are many opportunities to volunteer:
Awareness raising: Spread the word about aortic dissection and THINK AORTA where you live and work.
Support: Use your experience of aortic dissection to support other patients and relatives.
Storytelling: Share your lived experience of aortic dissection as a patient or relative story in writing, on a podcast or video, or as a speaker at an event.
Events: Help us plan our awareness events and attend medical conferences.
Digital: Join the team that maintains this website and our social media presence.
Research: Join our Research Team and represent the charity in research projects.
Admin: Help keep the wheels turning by using your skills to support our Admin & IT team.
Regional representative: Help co-ordinate our work in the region where you live.
Committee: After gaining some experience as a volunteer, you may decide to stand for election to the Management Committee at our AGM, when vacancies arise.
Trustee: After gaining some experience as a volunteer, you may decide to stand for election as a Trustee of the charity at our AGM, when vacancies arise.
