Community Helper Volunteers

Powys Community Helper Volunteers URGENTLY Needed!

Do you live in Powys? Could you spare only 1 hour per week / month to help a local older person get back outside?

Then you could change an older person’s life – by helping them to reconnect with the outside world!

We urgently need help to support lonely and isolated older people in Powys to bounce back from these challenging times.

We will support you to visit / meet up with an older person with the times convenient for you.

This is a very rewarding thing to do – knowing you’ve helped someone is incredibly satisfying and will make you, and the older person you help, very happy!

Support to reconnect with community may seem like a simple thing, but it can make a world of difference to older people.

Opportunities across Powys include:

  • Popping in for tea and a natter
  • Support to get out and about
  • Visiting local social groups together
  • Help to enjoy the internet
  • Sharing interests, hobbies & skills
  • Enjoying life together

Our Powys Community Helper Volunteers are supporting older people to enjoy local community life.

Could you support an isolated older person to reconnect?

You don’t need any special experience to volunteer, you just need to be kind and caring, and to enjoy sharing time with someone with similar interests to you.

You can be assured of our super-friendly support, paid expenses and volunteering times that are flexible for you.

We would love to hear from you – and so would the many older people across Powys who have asked us for a Community Helper.

You will be making a fantastic positive difference to an older person’s quality of life.

Our volunteers love the opportunity to do something wonderful for older people, that helps them get out, socialise and enjoy life again.

Come and join our super-friendly teams – it's quick and easy to register your interest – please give us a call for a friendly chat, or email to find out more:

Powys Outdoor Volunteers URGENTLY Needed!

Do you enjoy the outdoors? Could you help a local older person who is isolated to get back outside?
 
Only 30mins to 1 hour – once a week, or month – is required.
 
Support to get outside may seem like a small thing, but it can make a big difference to older people’s lives.
 
Spending a little time being active with someone who could do with some company is so rewarding and will make both you, and the older person you help, very happy!
 
Opportunities across Powys include:
 
• Walking buddies
• Having a chat outdoors
• Dog walking
• Light gardening
• Sharing skills in the open air together
 
 
Many older people are just in need of a friend to help reconnect and go outside again after being alone for so long – please contact us urgently!
