Age Concern Hampshire (ACH) is seeking dedicated volunteers to support the expansion of its community social groups, funded by SNG.
Volunteers play a crucial role in facilitating activities, providing companionship, and creating a welcoming environment for participants. Those interested in making a positive impact to communities in Overton or Whitchurch should get in touch by calling 01962 868545 or by visiting the ACH website for more information: https://www.ageconcernhampshire.org.uk/job/basingstoke-social-group-volunteer-sng/
Each group offers a variety of engaging activities designed to promote movement, social interaction and mental stimulation with weekly activities include games, entertainment sessions, and informative talks. These activities create a supportive environment where individuals can share knowledge, experiences, and mutual interests, all while building connections and developing new friendships to improve their overall health and wellbeing.
The type of person who would suit the role of Social Group Volunteer is one who is happy organising the above activities/speakers for the residents of Harvey’s Field, Overton or Seeviours Court, Whitchurch (or indeed any of the Basingstoke Groups). Their aim is to recruit enough volunteers so that each group is supported by two volunteers at any one time.
