Ambassadors are a positive voice for Candlelighters. They help raise awareness and encourage people to support our work through speeches and presentations, cheque presentations and occasionally stalls.

We have a range of administration and office support roles in different teams so you can choose to gain experience in an area you want to develop or a role that matches your expertise.

Welcome families to our support centre and help them access all the wonderful services we have on offer. We need smiley, positive regular volunteers to make families feel at home.

We are looking for confident, fun and outgoing volunteers to help the project support worker and Head of Family Support to set up and run family support groups and events throughout the year.

We are looking for volunteers who’ve been personally affected by childhood cancer to help expand the Candlelighters Family Network across Yorkshire.

Attending events such as marathons, 10ks, award ceremonies and fundraising events, our photographers capture our supporters’ incredible efforts and help us to shout about what they and the charity do.

We’re looking for a proactive volunteer who uses their own initiative to organise plants which keep the Teen Oncology & Paediatric Bone Marrow Transplant wards’ garden welcoming all year round.

A few days a week for several weeks in a row, these flexible placements are designed to fit University Courses’ Work Placement requirements and provide you with experience in a relevant field.

Provide our supporters with resources and equipment, including merchandise, buckets and collecting boxes, pop up stands, etc for their fundraising.

Volunteering at a challenge event is a fun and rewarding day out; it’s a great way to experience the fantastic atmosphere and be part of a brilliant team by marshalling, cheering or helping at the event village or as a massage therapist.
