Do you have Counselling qualifications and skills you want to put to good use?
We are looking for volunteers with experience of counselling at level 2 and above to support our Emotional Support programme.
Our six-week support service gives participants the chance to talk through feelings, thoughts and emotions during difficult times on a one-to-one basis with an advisor.
Volunteers provide support by telephone or video call usually on a weekly basis. This role involves volunteering unsupervised, from your own home. Ongoing support is available and you will also be given an induction and appropriate training.
By joining us as an Emotional Support volunteer you will be providing a valuable and amazing service for people with a combined sight and hearing loss.
