    Be Part of Something Special

    At Betty’s Club, we know that community isn’t something you have — it’s something you build. Our volunteers are the heart of that community, helping us create a space where people living with dementia and their carers feel seen, supported, and joyful.

    If you’re looking for a meaningful way to make a difference, meet new people, and learn new skills — we’d love to welcome you.

    No clinical background required. Just bring compassion, curiosity, and a willingness to help.
