Epilepsy Berkshire offers mutual support and strives to help resolve many of the issues relating to living with Epilepsy.

This includes offering social events which can be enjoyed in a safe environment knowing there is support available wherever necessary.

Right now they are seeking a volunteer to join them, for approximately two hours a week, to help organise and support adult members.

You would be helping with anything from helping organise events to promoting the charity through social media and other outlets.

It could also include directly supporting their members on various outings.

Tilehurst Parish Council offers a wide range of services to improve the quality of life for their residents, such as their new youth clubs they are establishing.

This role may suit you if you are a current college or university student looking to widen your experience by working with young people or perhaps you have recently retired and would like to share some of the expertise you have in working with young people.

They would like you to be with them between Saturday, July 9, andSaturday, September 10, school and family holidays permitting, for a minimum of two sessions per week, more if you like.
