This is a great opportunity to be involved from the very beginning in the delivery of a new programme - Barrow Buddies!

The service will provide opportunities to gain confidence and improve orientation and mobility for people who are vision impaired and living in Barrow-in-Furness. In addition there will be a weekly walking group.  All of ths will help adults with vision impairments to feel more confident making short and purposeful journeys independently and improve health and fitness through the walking group. Volunteers will provide much of the one-to-one support to service users with the guidance of this post-holder.

This post-holder will be supported by an expert team of Volunteer Officer, Engagement Officer and a Service Manager with a proven track record in outdoor activities.

We are looking for a high energy, highly organised, person-centred individual with an optimistic attidue and an ability to flex to changing needs.  A walk leader qualification or previous experience in the vision impairment sector would be beneficial but not essential.  Full training will be provided.

It's a unique and really exciting role for the right candidate! 

Due to the nature of the role, it will be based mainly in our office in Barrow-in-Furness, with one day a week available to work from home, subject to business need.
