Volunteering
Some elderly people don’t
see anyone from one end of the week to the other!
Would you like to make a difference to the lives of some
of the elderly, disabled and housebound people
living in our community?
We are always looking for new volunteers to help at Sunday
Club.
We will pleased to hear from anyone who regularly has 2-3
hours to spare on Sunday afternoons
and who enjoys meeting people.
The type of jobs you may be asked to do:
Help people on and off the buses
Meet and greet people as they arrive at the club
Help with the raffle and/or bingo
Serve refreshments and wash up
Sit and talk to club members that may be on their own
Other volunteering opportunities include
Helping by baking – cakes, scones, sausage rolls etc
Entertaining – can you play the organ, sing, tell
jokes?
Crafts – do you have a skill that you could share
with our members?
Bus Driver – Are you able to drive a 12-seated mini
bus? We need people to help pick up club members
from 1pm and take them home at approximately 4.45pm
Our volunteers find that helping at Sunday Club is a very
satisfying and rewarding experience.
It can also be a good way to meet new people and even developing
new skills.
Who can volunteer?
People from all generations
and from all sections of the community can become volunteers.
If you are:
Retired - Your experience will be invaluable — your
time can continue to be gainfully used.
Employed- There are opportunities to volunteer outside working
hours.
Unemployed, on benefit or returning to work - Volunteering
should not affect your benefits,
however you should advise your Job Centre or Benefits Agency
before becoming a volunteer.
