We are immensely proud of all our volunteers across the UK and the work we do would not be possible without them. We welcome people from all backgrounds who are happy to give some time to volunteering.
It’s simple:
"I thoroughly enjoy working as a volunteer at Dystonia UK because all the staff are brilliant people to work with and hugely knowledgeable. I also feel a great sense of pride when I have been able to offer support and answer people's questions about what dystonia is and how I and Dystonia UK can help them now and in the future. " - Nicholas Calder-Bundy, Dystonia UK volunteer
