## **Introduction**

For over 180 years, the Dispensaire Français has relied on the commitment of women and men who give their time so that hundreds of French speakers can access quality care and support in the United Kingdom. Whether you are a **healthcare professional** or simply driven by the **desire to help**, there is a place for you within [our team](https://dispensaire-en.abstract27.com/our-team/). We welcome our volunteers in a caring, well-organised and regulated setting, with the support of our permanent team.

To be a volunteer at the Dispensaire Français is to commit to offering a smile and giving selfless service to people in difficulty. It also means sharing the values and mission of the association.
