6 months ago
**Please note: this is a voluntary position and not paid employment**
**About Caring Together**
Three in five of us will become a carer at some point in our life. Caring Together is an ambitious regional charity that provides emotional and practical support, advice and guidance to carers of all ages and their families, as well as opportunities to take a break from their caring role.
**Our people**
We employ around 150 people with approximately 50% of those delivering homecare in local communities. We are supported by a growing number of volunteers who contribute their time to our work.
**Summary of the role**
The Carer Friendly Tick Award is an accreditation, comprising of four key areas: Communities, Education, Employers and Health. The award is assessed by carers and intended to be simple to understand and implement. It takes only a few steps but makes a real difference for carers. It is designed to help those who are unsure of how to identify and support carers in your setting or, for those already supporting carers, a way to recognise your great work.
**Where you will be based**
Working from home, a computer will be needed.
**What you will do**
- Providing constructive feedback and highlight any areas of good practice on form supplied.
**Your commitment**
- A willingness to attend training and supervision/support meetings as agreed.
**Benefits to the volunteer**
- Gaining new skills, both practically and personally.
- The satisfaction of knowing you are making an important and valued difference to someone’s life/the work of Caring Together.
- Meeting new people and be part of a friendly team.
- Gaining valuable experience in the social care field within a voluntary organisation.
**Our commitment to you**
- The opportunity to use and enhance your existing skills and develop new, transferable skills.
- Reimbursement of reasonable travel expenses.
**What we need from you**
- Basic DBS
**Skills and experience**
- Lived experience of being a carer
- Ability to clearly articulate feedback
**Get in touch**
Caring Together is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of vulnerable adults and children and expects staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
We are inclusive. We celebrate multiple approaches and points of view. We are an equal opportunities employer and expect staff to respect the personal choice and lifestyles of colleagues, carers, and people with care needs.
