Age UK Reading is an independent local charity that has been working in the local community to help older people since 1976.
They want a very caring and understanding individual that could attend and help run the Dementia Club held on Wednesdays and Fridays.
Volunteers would support a small group of elderly clients in early stages of dementia, helping set up the room, moving tables and chairs to set them up in a way conducive to easy socialisation and participation among all the clients and more.
Enrych Berkshire is a Registered Charity that provides support to people with a disability, helping them get access to leisure, social and learning activities.
Right now Enrych wants a volunteer to assist an older female who would love to go outside for walks.
The short walks will be a start in rebuilding strength. Their health has restricted her and they feel vulnerable on their own.
She uses her stick or walker.
The Me2 Club is an inclusion charity for children and young people with additional needs and disabilities in the Wokingham and Reading boroughs.
They are recruiting volunteers in the Berkshire area in order to help even more children with additional needs in the local community. They provide support by matching a young person from the Me2 Club with a one-to-one volunteer who would support them with activities.
If you are 16 or older and have a couple hours a week to give and have the desire to make a difference to a child’s life visit their website (https://me2club.org.uk/) and apply to be a volunteer today.
