At St Michael’s House, we are proud to foster a culture of volunteerism, where people from all walks of life contribute their time, skills, and energy to support the individuals we serve. Volunteers play a vital role in helping people achieve their goals, build connections, and participate fully in their communities.
This International Volunteer Year 2026, we invite you to step forward and make a difference.
