Volunteering at MQI

 

Volunteering at MQI
Merchants Quay Ireland was originally staffed entirely by volunteers. Volunteers contribute highly to the overall success of the organisation. While we now have a large number of professional paid staff it is still the case that volunteers play a very important role and the involvement of volunteers within the organisation is encouraged and supported whenever possible.

Merchants Quay Ireland seeks to ensure that -
  • All volunteers offering their services to the organisation will have their offers dealt with promptly and be given a warm welcome, which reflects the value we give to volunteers
  • The role of each volunteer is clearly defined
  • Training is given to all volunteers and will be reviewed and updated regularly
  • Support systems are in place for volunteers including regular supervision

Any adult (over the age of 18) is eligible to seek voluntary work at Merchants Quay Ireland. We particularly encourage applications from persons with personal experience of homelessness or problem drug use.

Volunteer Opportunities
Generally we ask volunteers to work two to three days per week. We provide
  • A Comprehensive Volunteer Training Programme
  • Regular support and supervision
  • Meals and out of pocket expenses
