Session support volunteer
Be a friendly face at our sessions. Welcome Friends and carers, chat over a cup of tea and help everyone feel at home.
About the role
Our sessions run at 20 locations across the Wirral, from memory cafés to music and gardening. As a session support volunteer you help make each one feel warm and welcoming.
What you would do
- Welcome Friends and carers as they arrive and help them settle in
- Chat over tea and biscuits, and join in with the activity
- Help set up and clear away
Who it suits
Anyone who is kind, patient and happy to chat. You do not need to know anything about dementia. Over two-thirds of our volunteers have cared for someone with dementia themselves, and you will be working alongside them.
What you get
- A full induction before your first session
- Training, including safeguarding
- Friendship with other volunteers and the Friends you meet
