Volunteering in our offices

Our office-based volunteering roles are mostly based at our Head Office in Telford. This is home to our support team who help keep PDSA running.

Our teams are often looking for volunteers to support their day-to-day work. We have departments covering everything from finance and marketing, to education and fundraising (and of course our volunteering team).

  • Experience in an area that interests you within an office environment
  • A friendly, sociable environment working with a fantastic team
  • Flexible hours based on your availability and needs
  • Recognition for length of service if you choose to stay with us long-term.
  • Annual 'Volunteer Awards' where we recognise the commitment and hard work our volunteers contribute
