Where is it you want me to volunteer?

• Support the delivery of national campaigns at local level.
• Welcoming people with dementia and their carers to our support groups.
• Help staff to provide information and serve refreshments.
• Engage in supportive discussions and conversations.
• Help with social activities e.g. Art, Reading,

How much time do you expect me to commit?

These roles are flexible, but ideally a few hours when required.  You will need to be in contact with your group leader.
