Volunteering
Give a little time to Guide Dogs and make a big difference to someone's life
We rely on our brilliant volunteers who give their time to help our charity in so many ways. There are many great volunteering opportunities to get involved in, even an hour makes a big difference.
Our volunteers can transform the lives of people living with sight loss, whether it is raising our puppies, sighted guiding, collecting funds or cheering on our event participants. There really is something for everyone!
We recognise the extraordinary efforts of all of our volunteers and we're really proud to have achieved the Investing in Volunteers accreditation for good practice in volunteer management.
We know that without our volunteers, our charity could not continue its life changing work.
We need your help.
Volunteering during Covid-19
Due to the current restrictions during the Covid-19 pandemic, some of our volunteering applications are taking longer to process. In some areas we may not be able to complete applications until face-to-face contact can be resumed. We are not currently recruiting My Sighted Guide Volunteers.
There may be further variations in how we can operate depending on local government restrictions.
If you’re interested in volunteering with us, please use the search below to find roles near you. We’re always looking for new volunteers to join us — even during these challenging times — and our application process remains open. Please note that it may take a little longer than usual to process your application.
