Volunteering opportunities
Whatever your reason, start your volunteering journey at Martlets today. Your support helps us continue providing compassionate hospice care across Brighton, Hove and East Sussex.

Our 1,200 volunteers generously gift thousands of hours of valuable time each year to Martlets and our sister hospices St Barnabas House and Chestnut Tree House.
By joining our network of incredible volunteers and giving your time, expertise and enthusiasm, you’ll be making a big difference to your local hospice charity.
We have roles to suit everyone
Our volunteers help in many different areas. Volunteers do a variety of essential roles from sorting donations to serving refreshments to our patients. They’re people of all ages and backgrounds who want to give back to their community, learn useful skills and make new friends along the way.
Whatever your experience and skills, we’ll help you find a Martlets volunteer role that suits you.


"You can be a listener to the staff. Sometimes I've even been in and helped talk to a patient that hasn't got anybody to talk to. Just for half an hour."
