Home visitor (Liskeard, Cornwall)
Can you spare a few hours to brighten someone’s day?
This veteran is unable to get out and misses the company of others. He is an outgoing chap who enjoys a chat. He would love somebody who could drop by to provide some company.
We are committed to supporting our blind veterans no matter where they are. Our home visitors provide crucial social interaction for our veterans and support them to get out and about in their communities.
You will never be asked to do any personal care or cleaning.
Although you will be working in the community independently, your manager is only a phone call away and there is a network of other volunteers for you to link in with too. Volunteers must be over the age of 18 years and understand the importance of confidentiality and relationship boundaries. The role can be flexible around your other commitments, but we ask that you are reliable and punctual for our veterans. You will be fully trained and supported so you feel comfortable and confident in your volunteering.
