Volunteer for in Edinburgh - VoiceAbility
Description
Volunteer to make a difference with VoiceAbility
VoiceAbility supports people to have their say in decisions about their health, care and wellbeing.
Could you give a few hours a week to help people speak up and be heard? We welcome applications from people who have lived experience and from anyone looking to make a positive difference.
We're recruiting for the following voluntary positions in Edinburgh & the Lothians:
How you can help
Support Session Volunteer (Scotland)
Could you support unpaid carers? Could you help someone find local services? Could you help someone understand the information they have been given about their care and support? Could you support or lead a group of people on a topic of interest?
You could help improve the quality of someone's life.
This role is ideal for social work students, an interest in the care sector or retired professionals.
Service Team Volunteer (Scotland)
Can you help promote services to local people in your community? Can you help at events and awareness raising sessions?
You could help improve access to services in your community.
This role is ideal for people who already have a connection to their community or would like to build one.
Why volunteer?
Volunteering with VoiceAbility is ideal for people who have or want experience in human rights, health, care and wellbeing - but we care more about your values and empathy than your level of experience.
Accountant Ben's priorities changed after a serious illness.
"I wanted to give something back. It's really rewarding as you get to use your knowledge and skills for a really good purpose."
You'll develop skills in communication and confidentiality, add experience and knowledge to your CV, and know you're making a genuine difference to people's lives.
As a volunteer you'll receive full training, support from the volunteer team and your local advocates, and paid expenses.
