Stuart Low Trust is a community-based charitable organisation. As our mission to reduce social isolation and empower people living with, or recovering from, mental health challenges continues to grow, so too does our need for talented, motivated, and committed volunteers.
We run out Arts, Nature and Wellbeing Programmes throughout the year, in four terms:
- Winter Term: January-March
- Spring Term: April-June
- Summer Term: July-September
- Autumn Term: October-December
