Volunteer Opportunity in Bishopston – Make a Meaningful Connection!
Milestones Trust is a health and social care charity supporting people with learning disabilities, mental health needs and complex behavioural needs. The Trust provides residential, nursing and supported living services to over 500 people living in Bristol, South Gloucestershire, North Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire.
Are you friendly, sociable, and looking to make a positive impact? A fun-loving and independent individual we support in our Bishopston supported living service is looking for a volunteer to join him for relaxed, social activities in the community.
Activities might include: visiting local cafés, going for walks, bowling or playing golf, shopping trips, going to the gym, cooking together, watching TV and chatting
He’s keen to meet someone who shares similar interests and can help him continue exploring and enjoying his community.
Time commitment: Ideally once a week during the day at weekends, but we’re happy to be flexible to suit your availability.
What we offer: Travel expenses reimbursed for every volunteering shift, any activity-related costs will be discussed with the individual and service, a warm welcome and ongoing support from our team
Interested in making a new connection and doing something meaningful? Get in touch—we’d love to hear from you!
