Volunteer with CHECT

Volunteering with the Childhood Eye Cancer Trust (CHECT) is a rewarding way to support families affected by retinoblastoma while using your skills, time and passion to make a real impact. Whether you can spare a few hours or want to take on a bigger role, we have plenty of opportunities for you to get involved.

Current opportunities

Details:

  • Thursday 29th October
  • CHECT Office, London
  • Drop in between 10am to 4pm
  • Bring a friend / sibling
  • Pizza lunch provided!

Are you aged 13-24 and fancy volunteering with CHECT over half term? Our regular Member’s Survey is going out, and Petra and Lena need help stuffing envelopes! You can either come for an hour or two, or stay until 4pm, it’s completely up to you. It’s a nice opportunity to help out, chat, and hopefully meet some other young people who have also had Rb.

Don’t forget, this could count towards your volunteering hours for those doing DofE, or is useful for personal statements for university, and CVs for job applications!

Bring a friend, sibling, or just come along yourself – we’d love to see you.

If you are interested, please let us know by filling out the registration form by the 25th of Oct.
