Group Support Volunteer - Merthyr Tydfil

About The Role

If you love meeting new people and want to support people affected by dementia in your area, then we may have just the volunteer role for you!

As a Group Support Volunteer, you’ll support and encourage people affected by dementia to engage in activities and socialise with others in a group setting. A friendly face at the group, you’ll welcome and talk to people affected by dementia to help them feel comfortable and make sure they’re offered refreshments. You’ll also help set up and tidy away at the end of the group.

This role is to support at our Freetime Activity Group, which meets weekly on Wednesdays from 11am to 1pm at Merthyr Indoor Bowling Centre, Rhydycar Leisure Village, Merthyr Tydfil, CF48 1UT. An interest in bowling is an advantage, but not essential. Volunteers should be available from 10.30am to 1.30pm.
