Volunteers are needed to provide telephone company for socially isolated people. Many of these people are recognised as being at high risk in society: this could be due to a range of factors, including age or a pre-existing medical condition. Your role will enable someone to maintain contact with the outside world, helping them to feel less lonely and improving their general well-being.
Volunteers are the cornerstone of our work with vulnerable people in our local communities, and we are grateful that you are offering your time to help us to make a difference. Full training and ongoing support will be provided by the Getting Together Matters Engagement Manager.
We don't expect you to accrue any out-of-pocket expenses through this opportunity, but should you do, they will be reimbursed following a conversation with the team. Unfortunately, we cannot cover the cost of telephone calls.
