Details of Role: 

Milestones Trust is a health and social care charity supporting people with learning disabilities, mental health needs and complex behavioural needs. The Trust provides residential, nursing and supported living services to around 500 people living in the Bristol, South Gloucestershire, and North Somerset areas.

A person we support in one of our supported living services in Hanham is looking for a volunteer to join her for fun and sociable activities.

Activities could include crafting, baking, pottery, having a cuppa at a café, attending beauty appointments and going to the cinema. The individual is very independent and would love to meet someone with similar interests to help them access the community.

Can you help?

We are looking for someone who is friendly, confident and outgoing. Ideally this would be a weekly or fortnightly volunteer role either on a weekday or the weekend during the day.

We can cover travel and some activity expenses. The person we support has a companion bus pass.

For all of our volunteer roles a DBS check will be carried out and two references will be taken up. All volunteers can attend a volunteer induction and are supported by both the volunteer team and a member of staff in the service too.

How to Apply: 

Please get in touch if you are interested in this role and would like to receive a volunteer application form (standard or easy read). If filling out forms aren't for you, please give us a call and we can take down your details.
