Volunteer information Package

Thank you for expressing interest in volunteering at QuIHN. Volunteering or doing your student placement at QuIHN can be an enjoyable and rewarding experience primarily because it is a fast-paced environment that provides you with the chance to engage with a wide range of people while also providing many fun, interactive activities for you to get involved in as a volunteer.  Volunteering can be a stepping stone into paid work by developing skills and experience, a way to complete student placement or prac, or just a chance to meet new people and to get involved in a community where your efforts are highly valued and appreciated.
