Activity Support Volunteer (Sutton, London)
Royal Mencap Society
Want to help local people with a learning disability make friends and take part in fun activities? If you have a few hours to give every week and want to help us run our activity sessions, apply today!
We are looking for volunteers who can join our Me Time groups on weekdays for a few hours to support with our activities. Our Me Time service provides local people with a learning disability the chance to learn through activities - indoor and in the community - have fun, and make new friends during the week. The role would involve supporting us with our activities at our centre on London Road in North Cheam. We have gardening sessions, arts and crafts, bowling, cooking, gym, swimming, technology skills sessions and lots more! You don’t have to have experience in any or all of the sessions we run, just willing to keep an open mind and a friendly attitude.

The role is flexible, if you can only give us a few hours a week on certain weekdays we would really appreciate it.
