Volunteer at Nomad

Volunteers have always played an important role in NOMAD's service provision. When NOMAD was initially formed, much of the work was carried out by volunteers, who worked in the areas of service provision, fundraising and management. Today, volunteers still have a significant role at NOMAD, and both the organisation and the individuals who work within it appreciate the valuable contribution made by volunteers.

NOMAD is committed to equality of opportunity and development for all paid and unpaid staff, and this is reflected in the way volunteers are involved in the organisation
