Citizens Advice Reading have been assisting local people with their problems since 1939. Their services are free, independent, confidential and impartial.
Right now they are seeking more Adviser Volunteers.
Advisers come from all sorts of backgrounds and you don’t need any particular qualifications or experience for this varied, interesting, rewarding role through which you learn a range of valuable skills.
You will be trained to interview clients, to research and provide initial information to clients backed up by an experienced supervisor and a very supportive team.
The Royal Berks Charity is an NHS Charity that relies on donations to fund their work, which helps improve and enhance the experience of patients and staff across their sites at the Royal Berkshire Hospital.
They want more volunteers to join them in order to assist with the distribution and collection of money boxes and buckets.
The role may need the use of a vehicle to transfer boxes about. The Charity will provide you with a branded t-shirt, volunteer badge and will reimburse you for your travelling costs.
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 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 amongst all the clients and more.
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.
