Be part of your Community
Volunteers help us make a difference.
We often have volunteering opportunities at EHRS which can include, helping with events and activities, assisting with our magazine packing, baking for festivals, and more.
Please see our volunteering opportunities below.
Volunteer at the EHRS Holocaust Memorial Day School Event
We are looking for members to volunteer at the Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) school event on Monday 13 January when we host over 200 students from a local school.
We are honoured to have Eva Clarke speak to the pupils once more. Her experience of being born during the war is very moving and sobering.
If you would like to be a table facilitator and help to lead a workshop to a group of students, or volunteer in another role on the day, we are holding training sessions at EHRS on Wednesday 4th December from 12:00-13:30 with lunch or Thursday 5th December from 19:00 -21:30 with supper. However you can help us we will be very grateful.
Please join us in this enriching experience for the pupils, their teachers and the volunteers. Contact Marian Cohen by email education@ehrs.uk or by telephone on 020 8238 1014 to register your interest or for any other questions you may have.
Volunteer for our annual Night Shelter
EHRS will again be hosting up to 17 homeless guests one night a week over a period of seven weeks in spring 2025. We will be offering a hot evening meal, a safe place to sleep overnight and a simple breakfast upstairs in our community centre.
Our lovely EHRS volunteers will support this important project for 7 Monday nights and Tuesday mornings between Monday February 24 to Tuesday morning 8 April 2025.
You can volunteer for one or more shifts.
We will need volunteer cooks (at home), people to set up, people to serve dinner and socialise, people to sleep in the hall with our homeless guests, people to serve breakfast and clean up as well as people to deliver bedding to the next venue.
All volunteers that come into contact with our homeless guests will receive full training and a volunteer handbook will be provided.
If you’d like to join the volunteering team or find out more, please contact Lisa Bard on nightshelter@ehrs.uk or by WhatsApp message 07724 897222 (no calls please).
