Volunteer for us

Our volunteers are amazing and make a difference to people living with EB every day.

Whether you have a specific skill or want to learn something new; however much or little time you give, there is a role for you in your local shop. Our wide range of volunteering opportunities and flexible approach mean that you decide how and where you give your time.

Along with staff and customers, volunteers change lives. Unleash your potential and it might change yours too.
