The role for you

Terrence Higgins Trust's work is becoming more diverse with each passing year - these days we're doing more than ever to improve the nation's sexual health and our work is taking place all over the British Isles.

We're busier than ever and we'd welcome your help.

Whatever your strengths and interests we've got volunteer roles to suit you. You could provide support on the helpline, help someone living with HIV in the community, lend your counselling skills, or help test people's sexual health.

On the other hand, it could be that you mentor someone newly arrived in the country, train other new volunteers, staff the reception desk, or update the office filing.

We've a gamut of roles that could suit the skills you bring, the time you can spare, and the type of thing you'd like to do. It's just a matter of finding the right role for you - one that's rewarding and helps improve the nation's sexual health.

We'd welcome you to join our team.
