Ronald McDonald House, Bristol is an independent charity which provides Home from Home accommodation, free of charge, to the families of critically ill children receiving care at the Bristol Royal Hospital for Children. We simply can’t do this without the help of our fundraisers and the people who donate their time and money to support us.


Types of opportunities available:


Casual/ One-off Events

We are a very small team of staff and are always in need of extra hands at our events. We have a calendar of events through the year to sign up to and your role will be dependent on the nature of the event. You may be shaking a tin in a shopping mall, watching a competition hole in a golfing competition, or giving our registration packs at a bungee jumping extravaganza. If you sign up to our event volunteering network, we will call upon you as and when the needs arise and you can let us know if you are able to help.


Ongoing Roles

When a child is very ill, they may need to travel away from home to receive the treatment that they require. Our aim is to keep families together during what is probably one of the most stressful times of their lives. We accommodate over 800 families each year, providing all the comforts that you would expect to find in your own home, with spacious en-suite bedrooms, kitchens and communal living areas.

The primary requirement for taking on any voluntary role at RMH Bristol is to believe in the work we do here and show a genuine interest in contributing to the cause. We are seeking skilled individuals who would be willing to commit to a role in any of the following areas:

• Gardening
• Maintenance
• House-keeping
