Role Description

Do you like to have a chat and enjoy the company of others? Our Volunteer Visitors service connects volunteers with people who are experiencing loneliness or isolation. These roles are available in a variety of locations with people who have a variety of interests and backgrounds. We will introduce you to people with similar interests and pastimes. These may include having a coffee and a chat and sharing stories, enjoying hobbies or simply relaxing and watching the world go by.

Benefits

Our volunteers often say they get as much out of volunteering as they put in and love the chats that they have with the people they visit.

Training

We will introduce you and provide ongoing support, we even host celebration events to say thank you for making a difference to people.
