Dunfermline, United Kingdom Blind Veterans UK Full time

We are committed to supporting our blind veterans no matter where they are. Our member in Dunfermline served in the Royal Army Service Corps. He would like to get out once a week in his local area to go on short walks in the nice weather at a local park or along the promenade. He enjoys giving new things a go and hobbies include golf and bowls. Our volunteers provide crucial social interaction for our veterans who can’t reach our centres and can sometimes feel isolated or lonely. For this role, we are looking for volunteers who aren’t afraid to get stuck in, and even learn new skills themselves.

Volunteers must be over the age of 18 and understand the importance of relationship boundaries. The role can be flexible around your other commitments, but we ask that you are reliable and punctual for our veterans. You will be fully trained and supported so you feel comfortable and confident in your volunteering.
