Dementia Carers Hub Volunteer
2 months ago
Age UK Birmingham teams up with the Dementia Carers Hub to offer specialized groups that include vital peer support, activities, and awareness sessions for those looking after people with dementia.
Volunteers are essential in running these weekly groups, leading activities, and helping to create a friendly atmosphere. Tasks include setting up the room including refreshments, guiding discussions, organizing activities, and keeping track of attendance.
Volunteering:
Volunteers should enjoy working in a team, be dependable, and be eager to support older individuals through enjoyable activities and meaningful interactions. This opportunity not only allows volunteers to make a real difference in the lives of dementia carers but also provides personal growth through training and community engagement
- For our Monday Erdington and Wednesday Sutton Coldfield groups, the ideal people for this role should have qualities like empathy, patience, and friendliness. While some knowledge of dementia is helpful, it's not mandatory and training in dementia skills will be provided and encouraged.
- For our Thursday Oscott group, where the group is for people with dementia and their carers, in addition to above, experience of working with or caring for someone with dementia is essential.
Additionally, volunteers will have their travel costs and any relevant expenses covered, and will undergo necessary background checks for everyone's safety.
