Volunteer: Creative Companion for Young Adults

We are looking for keen volunteers to come and spend time with our service users. We care for younger adults with learning disabilities, planning days out, supporting them in the garden, baking and cooking with them, and helping carry out self care tasks such as nail painting.

We welcome anyone with a creative mind to help plan and carry out creative and fun ideas for our service users.

DBS checks are not required for this opportunity, but having one may open up additional opportunities to work outside the unit.

What activities will the volunteer perform or take part in?

• Arts and crafts
• Cooking/Baking sessions
• Befriending - visiting the service users for a cuppa and a chat
• Cinema/Film nights
• Gentle exercise sessions
• Games sessions - board games, jigsaws, outdoor games
