The British Red Cross has been helping millions of people in the UK and around the world get the support they need when a crisis strikes.

Right now they are seeking a Customer Service Volunteer in their Thames Valley Area branch. If you enjoy being in an office environment, are compassionate and like meeting people then this could be the role for you.

This vital service enables people to maintain their independence and quality of life after an illness or injury. Whether it is to help take a relative out, or take a child to school, it makes a difficult and distressing time a little bit easier.

Enrych Berkshire is a Registered Charity that provides support to people with a disability, helping them get access to leisure, social and learning activities.

They are currently seeking a female volunteer to help one of their female members that uses a wheelchair to go out and visit places again. You could be the person that builds their confidence.

And of course there are many more volunteer opportunities with Enrych Berkshire that helps even more people one-on-one, ranging from just being a person to lend an ear or being a volunteer that assists in taking them to social events.
