Volunteering with Sólás provides you with the opportunity to get involved with the community, and gain an understanding of those with Autism and other additional needs. As we accept volunteers into all of our programs, you can experience working with a variety of age groups and needs.

As a volunteer, we ask that you encourage our service-users to engage through play, to socialise with their peers, encourage them to develop their skills in a safe environment, and support them throughout the session.

Our volunteers come from a range of backgrounds including university students studying psychology, nursing, teaching and social work amongst other disciplines. We also have school students from both the local area and abroad, and those with an interest in giving back to the community.
