Event Information

Are you a healthcare student looking for a volunteering opportunity at university?

Are you looking for an opportunity to volunteer with children?

Are you looking for a flexible opportunity, run by healthcare students that understand the stresses of lectures and placement?

Teddy Bear Hospital is for you!!

This session will be a chance to get to know the committee, meet other members and also for the ESSENTIAL REQUIRED training to be able to go on our visits. We've incorporated our welcome and training into one event to make it more convenient for you!

There will be only a few opportunities to get this training in freshers, so please prioritise this event or you will not be able to volunteer with us until next year's training.

The aims of Teddy Bear Hospital Cardiff are to reduce children's fears about Hospital, Doctors, Dentists and needles. Working with local schools and after school clubs, such as Rainbows and Beavers we also aim to teach children about the body, germs, teeth brushing and healthy eating, using the fun medium of teddy bears and other toys to get our message across. We aim to give all Healthcare students the chance to interact with young children, giving them the opportunity to develop communication skills for their future careers.
