Currently, they want a Trustee. RAB’s Trustees have overall responsibility for the effective running of the charity and to ensure that it is carrying out its activities in accordance with what it was set up to do.

This opportunity to lead the direction of the charity and ensure RAB sight loss thrives, creates and maintains sustainable funding streams and achieves their ethos and charitable objectives.

This is a great way of enhancing your CV.

This role contributes to the organisation’s day-to-day delivery, ensuring everything runs smoothly.

You’ll be welcoming people face to face and either directing them to their pre-booked appointment or helping them to arrange an appointment with an appropriate adviser.

They want a volunteer that can commit to two half day sessions per week for a minimum of 12 months.

They ask for a long commitment because they offer comprehensive training.

It is very rewarding and some of their volunteers have been with them for more than 20 years.

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 her own.

She uses her stick or walker.

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.
