Reading Blind Aid Society was formed in 1883 and then changed to Reading Association for the Blind in 1926 and has supported the sight impaired people of Reading ever since.

They currently need helpers at their Social Club. They have arts and crafts activities where volunteers help members participate. This would be a perfect opportunity for caring volunteers that happen to be creative.

These Social Clubs are held at Walford Hall and provide a safe, much needed social environment for their members.

Change Grow Live has grown from a tiny volunteer-led Sussex-based organisation, to a nationwide charity that helps tens of thousands of people each day.

Their mission is to help people change the direction of their lives, grow as individuals, and live life to its full potential.

They are currently seeking administration support volunteers in Reading. You’ll get training and experience that will be relevant and useful for lots of health and social care jobs.

Key activities include: ensuring that telephone calls and visits from service users are dealt with promptly and courteously, providing service users with basic advice about the services and signposting them where appropriate, record-keeping and more.

Dance Reading (formerly Junction Dance) formed in 2014, is an arts charity committed to opening up access to dance for all, strengthening and improving the quality of dance in the community and providing new platforms for experiencing dance.

They are looking to connect with a team of volunteers who would like to support events at Dance Reading 2022 and be part of making their festival possible. You don’t need to be a dancer or an arts professional.

They want welcoming and inclusive volunteers to be available for an event on Saturday, November 26, at 5pm to 10pm at READ College, St Bartholomew’s Road in east Reading.

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.
