Volunteers
At Disabled Living we value our team of volunteers for their hard work and enthusiasm, and greatly appreciate their continued support.
With the valuable help of volunteers we have achieved great success with our "Kidz up North" exhibition and other events, not forgetting vital jobs to support our services "back at base". As one of our team of volunteers here at Disabled Living we hope to make your experience with us enjoyable, rewarding and varied.
We welcome any level of support, from an occasional few hours to a regular commitment
If you are interested in becoming a Volunteer contact our Volunteer Co-ordinator on 0161 607 8200 or email - david.edmondson@disabledliving.co.uk. Alternatively you can download the volunteer application form here.
Thank You
Thank you to our Volunteers who every year help support our services, events and help us raise much needed funds.
Volunteer Co-ordinator
Hi my name is David Edmondson and I am the Volunteer Co-ordinator for Disabled Living. I am married to Gill and have two grown up children Stephen and Fiona. Both are married and we have a grandson Andrew. I was lucky enough to retire early from work in the December of 1996. Before retirement I was the Safety and Fire Manager for a large international pharmaceutical company with responsibilities both here and Europe. On retirement Gill and I went to work for a well known travel company based here in the north west firstly as campsite couriers during the summer months and then as hosts to the older generation ( our own) providing entertainment programmes in hotels in Tunisia and Spain. Several years ago we bought ourselves a motor home in Canada and have spent the last few summers exploring the west coast of Canada and a reasonable number of the States in America. We finally gave up work in 2002 and spent our summer as volunteers working for the Commonwealth games. (What a fantastic experience). Before finishing work I had been in the Scout movement for several years and was the District Commisioner for Hazel Grove district. So volunteering and what one gets out of it was not a new experience. Apart from my extensive world travelling (I have restless feet), I can now devote my time to more volunteer work. If anyone who has time on their hands and wants to do something that is both fulfilling and satisfying please come and join our merry band of volunteers or look around locally there are always things to do.
