Volunteer
We view volunteering as a fantastic way to contribute to your community, build on an interest, have your say, gain some experience, share and develop skills, and, as one of our volunteers regularly highlights, to "get out the house". We value those who give their time across the Association and amongst our various Community Projects. We work alongside people to ensure that they are getting what they want out of volunteering. This may be:
- accredited training such as First Aid, Food Hygiene, Brushcutter Licence or Chainsaw Licence
- developing our Volunteer Development Programme with us to cover topics of interest, for example, Confidence Building, Assertiveness, Health and Safety, Stress Management, and Challenging Behaviour
- support to access further opportunities such as attending training/workshops in other areas, providing references, support with CV writing, passing on knowledge of what's going on elsewhere
- influencing what we deliver from what projects we prioritise for funding, to design and delivery of events and activities
- gaining awards such as the Duke of Edinburgh Award or Saltire Award
- simply a regular place to come to for good company and a constant flow of hot drinks!
