Trusteeships & Committees
Managing People, Organising & Planning, People Skills
We are looking for people of all ages with a heart for older and or disabled people. You will need to be reliable, friendly and approachable and have empathy, compassion and patience. Business skills would be an advantage as would experience within the voluntary sector, but life experience is more important to this role. You will need to be able to offer 1 to 2 days per month minimum.
So many people don't have family who live close to them. We connect people who want to help, with people who need help. It's a win, win. Those who volunteer feel more engaged with the people within their own local communities. And those people who ask us for help are able to get to appointments, see their friends and get out and about.
In-person board meetings every 8 weeks and additional time support the charity and stepping in as a volunteer when necessary.
