Volunteering

The Northern Trust’s Day Opportunities Programme, with the Department for Social Development and the Association for Independent Volunteer Centres, has developed partnerships with Volunteering Providers across the Trust to match and maintain adults with learning disabilities in volunteering opportunities.

Types of voluntary work available include volunteering at charity shops, volunteering for charitable organisations, volunteering with animals and volunteering with older people.

The progress of this opportunity is continually monitored through the Northern Trust’s Day Opportunities Programme.
