Volunteering at RISE

Volunteering is a very rewarding experience as it really is making a difference to the lives of other people in the local community.  There are a number of different ways that you could help us and here are some of them

• Befriending an older person and visiting weekly or fortnightly
• Telephoning an older person on a weekly basis
• Organising a fundraising event
• Helping out at the Platt Mission in Putney on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Fridays
•  Helping at our RISE Woking Centre, St Mary's Community Centre, Byfleet, Surrey
• Helping at our Saturday Cafe once a month
• Providing transport in your car to bring people to the Centre and take them home at the end of the day

If you are a Company and would like to volunteer with us, please email and you can help us organise a tea party or a special event.

To volunteer with us on a regular basis, you will need to complete an application form.  We would send for references and carry out an Enhanced DBS.  We are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and are unable to recruit volunteers with a criminal record.  If you would like to sign up, please contact us via email and we will send you the application form.  Alternatively you could complete the Application Form here and send it to us Volunteer Application Form 2024
