Community Connector Volunteer
Contacting the person over the phone to find out their interests, researching the relevant opportunities and keeping in touch with them for a few weeks with regular calls of friendship and encouragement.
Volunteers complement the work of our employees, enabling us to reach older people and do more on their behalf. We also believe that volunteers should find their experience rewarding; by learning new skills or developing existing ones, meeting new people and making a difference to Scotland’s older people.
The breadth of our work means we can offer a variety of roles meaning your bound to find something to suit you. Browse our roles below or get in touch with our team by calling us on 0333 32 32 400 or emailing volunteering@agescotland.org.uk
