An individual that we support in one of our learning disability residential services is looking for a volunteer to read and chat with. The person is non-verbal and non-tactile.
Can you help?
We are looking for someone who is friendly, confident and imaginative. As they are non-tactile, you would sit next to but not too close to her. Ideally this would be a weekly or fortnightly volunteer role, however all our roles are flexible.
Travel expenses are covered for each volunteering shift. This is a role based in the service where this person lives.
For all our volunteer roles a DBS check will be carried out and we will request two references. All volunteers can attend an in-person volunteer induction and we offer online training alongside this. You will be supported by both the volunteer team and a designated member of staff in the service too.
You can apply for this role several ways :
- Apply online
- Fill out a word application form (standard or easy read) - please email us for a copy of this.
- Give us a ring and we can take down your details.
