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 its Dementia Club held on Fridays.
Volunteers would support a small group of elderly clients in the 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.
Enrych Berkshire is a Registered Charity that supports people with a disability, helping them access leisure, social and learning activities.
Enrych is currently looking for a female volunteer to accompany a female member to her swimming sessions. The swimming sessions happen early afternoon on Wednesdays.
You are not required to get into the pool yourself.
You are welcome to do so at the same time.
The member does not require assistance when in the water, however, they would like help carrying their bags and to have somebody to push their wheelchair poolside and into the changing rooms.
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.
