Outreach Support Liaison
Helping our Trustees and Outreach Workers with the production of our events and publicity materials. This may include liaising with partner organisations providing services and events for older people and printers producing our brochures, programmes and leaflets. It can also include preparing and distributing individual tea packs when we do a tea at home event aimed at the housebound.
Event Companion
Our research has shown that for many isolated older people having a companion can make it easier to take the first steps to join local events and organisations. Our companions help older people by accompanying them to a few events and helping them meet with other people so that their confidence is developed. This role requires a DBS certificate.
Transport
Our research has shown that getting to events is difficult in our rural area. Buses services, when available, often do not run to timetables that allow easy attendance at events. So, our Transport Volunteers provide a pickup and return service. Transport Volunteers need to have a suitable vehicle and also hold a DBS certificate.

We are increasingly relying on social media to advertise our offerings to our target audiences. We are very keen to find volunteers who are interested in editing and managing our on-line presence. If you are a person undertaking education or training in social media we can offer you a project as part of your course.
Brochure Distributors
