Volunteer Internship – Courses and Conferences

Unpaid with reasonable travel and lunch expenses reimbursed

Are you hoping to work in the charity sector? Are you looking to develop your skills, boost your CV and make a difference to the work that we do?

Help the Hospices are currently offering a volunteer internship in our courses and conferences team for c. 12 weeks.

As an intern you could be working on our annual two day conference in Leeds; supporting the project team on this conference and smaller courses/workshops; and gaining experience of working in the charity. Your contribution will make a real difference to our organisation.

We aim to give volunteer interns a rewarding experience, provide a thorough induction and supervision, and meaningful work on specific and time-limited projects. Two of our recent interns have gone on to secure permanent employment and fed back that the internship contributed to their appointment.

Those taking up a volunteer internship with us can determine their time and availability. We will aim be as flexible as possible but for practical support reasons we envisage the internship would take place over two days a week, although the exact days and hours will be determined by availability and personal preference.
