Community Volunteer - UK wide

Community Volunteer 

Role description 

Our volunteers are vital in helping us make life fully inclusive for the 12 million people in the UK who are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus.  RNID hugely value the contribution of our volunteers and we achieved the Investing in Volunteers quality mark in 2023. 

What you’ll be doing 

Community volunteers help us share information. They act as ambassadors for RNID, providing information to deaf people and people with hearing loss and tinnitus and providing information on RNID services and activities. They do this by: 

• attending events, such as community open days, health information days 

• giving presentations to groups (these might be in-person or held remotely on-line 

You don’t have to do all types of activities; you can pick the activities you find most interesting and match your skills and experience. Community volunteers help us on an ad hoc, flexible basis, there is no fixed time commitment. 

Full induction and training is provided and you’ll be assigned a supervisor to provide you with on-going support and to introduce you to our community of volunteers.  

Requirements 

You need to be 16 or over for this role. You may need to be able to travel by car or public transport to different places. We’ll reimburse your expenses in line with RNID’s expenses policy.
