We are looking for a volunteer to spend time with an individual in Kingswood who enjoys going out for lunch, browsing charity shops, chatting and socialising. Being a good listener and enjoying friendly conversation would be ideal. The person would like support on a weekly basis, preferably at weekends. They have a preference for a female volunteer but are also open to a male volunteer.
We’re looking for someone who is warm, sociable, and happy to spend relaxed time out in the community. Full training and guidance will be provided by the service.
As with all our volunteer roles, a DBS check will be required, and we will request two references. Volunteers will also need to complete our online or in-person training before starting their role. Ongoing support will be available from both the volunteer team and a designated member of staff within the service.
