Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity is looking for volunteers to join our new Reading Care Team, providing essential transport for families.

Volunteer Drivers help to provide additional support to the families they work with by providing safe, comfortable and reliable transport, enabling them to travel safely to healthcare appointments, school and to other activities.

They are looking for volunteers based in Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Reading and the surrounding areas to assist with travel across the area.

The Salvation Army is seeking volunteers to help support their older persons groups on Wednesday 11-1pm.

Approximateky 20 people both male and female, play games, chat and have a hot meal together.

The role would be to join in board games and show friendship. They are a very friendly group with a cross-section of people – faith/no faith. Everyone is valued and appreciated.

Berkshire Vision provides vital practical and friendly support, sport and activities to visually impaired children and adults, and their families in Berkshire.

Every three years they conduct a full survey of all their members asking their opinions on multiple subjects. We need to contact more than 1,000 members and we can only do this with a team of volunteers to help

If you would like to be involved by volunteering to make some of these phone calls they would love to hear from you. We are looking for volunteers to help between March and the end of May

Take a look at our brand new Reading Volunteer Connect platform for details of these and many more opportunities to volunteer via our website, www.rgneeds.me. Want to get in touch? Drop us an email at volunteering@rva.org.uk or call 0118 937 2273.
