Volunteer to help the PA

Do you have some spare time and want to help support PA Hospital patients and their families? 
There is a range of volunteering opportunities here at the PA Hospital where you can help the PA Research Foundation to drive medical research and greater support patients and their families.

From being a friendly face greeting visitors at the information desk, helping patients to find their appointments or selling raffle tickets and manning the merchandise desk to raise vital funds for research and patient support, there are plenty of ways you can help us create a healthier future for all through volunteering.

We love our volunteers here at the PA because they come from a wide range of cultural backgrounds, ages and experience levels and give their time selflessly to help others. When volunteers give their time, they can save patients and their families from unnecessary stress and make what can be a daunting experience for many a much brighter one.

PA Research Foundation volunteers complement the work of paid hospital and foundation staff in making the PA a leader in healthcare.
