As an RPR support volunteer, you might:
visit people in their care home, to make sure they’re getting the right care and support
talk with them about their feelings, thoughts and wishes
raise concerns
keep detailed notes and records
make a real difference to someone’s life
We offer a range of e-learning including Safeguarding, Health and Safety and Lone Working.
In addition, we offer instructor led courses on Microsoft Teams specific to the role.
Volunteering with VoiceAbility is ideal for people who have or want experience in human rights, health, care and wellbeing - but we care more about your values and empathy than your level of experience.
You’ll develop skills in communication and confidentiality, add experience and knowledge to your CV, and know you’re making a genuine difference to people’s lives.
As a volunteer you’ll receive full training, support from the volunteer team and your local advocates, and out of pocket expenses.
These skills are important:
Empathy with people
Ability to maintain confidentiality at all times
Ability to act as a representative of VoiceAbility
Good communication
Respect for difference and diversity
Non-judgmental attitude
Organisational skills
