Volunteer Nurse/Medical Professional for Trip to Lourdes (16/10 - 23/10)

A unique opportunity to make a life‑changing difference

Joining our Lourdes pilgrimage as a Volunteer Nurse is a chance to be part of something truly special. You’ll help support adults and young people who have disabilities, complex health needs, or limited mobility to experience the spiritual, emotional, and community life of Lourdes, something many could not do without your help.

What You’ll Do

As a Volunteer Nurse, you will play a vital role in making the journey safe, comfortable, and positive. Your responsibilities may include:

• Acting as Lead for care, safeguarding, and first aid within the group
• Leading on manual handling
• Completing daily checks for medication administration
• Providing personal care such as washing, dressing, toileting, mobility support and feeding for travellers with complex care needs.
• Offering mobility support, including assisting with transfers and using hoists safely

Why It Matters

For many travellers, a Jumbulance trip with volunteer care support is their only opportunity to visit Lourdes. Your support enables them to:

• Experience the peace and spirituality of Lourdes
• Participate in Masses, processions, and group activities
• Enjoy friendship, fun, and a sense of belonging
• Travel in a safe, accessible environment designed around their needs

Your presence makes the pilgrimage possible.

We have access to funding to subside the cost of the trip for registered nurses and medical professionals.
