If you enjoy being in an office and like meeting people, this is the role for you. You’ll be providing people with wheelchairs and other equipment to help them get moving again after illness or injury.
Ideally you will live within 10 miles of the British Red Cross office in Great Yarmouth (NR31 9AQ).
We would like volunteers who;
- Can commit on a regular weekly basis.
- Can volunteer to cover one shift each week between 9:30am to 2pm, Monday to Friday.
- Can commit to volunteering for a minimum of 12 months.
Please note this role will involve some manual handling and moving of mobility aids equipment.
Diversity is something we celebrate. We want you to be able to bring your authentic self to the Red Cross and feel that you belong.
We want to create an inclusive environment, and promote and spread the power of kindness.
As part of creating an inclusive space we have an expenses policy that prioritises volunteers not being out of pocket for expenses linked to your role. If up front costs are difficult, you can speak to your volunteering manager about this to find alternatives.
We welcome refugees, asylum seekers and others currently in the UK to volunteer with us.
We want volunteering to be accessible to everyone.
Health and Safety Statement
We take an individual approach to ensuring your safety.
We may ask you to complete a simple risk assessment and will also have a conversation with you to discuss and identify any adjustments you may need.
We’re sorry but at the moment we can’t always host 15 – 17 year olds, do get in touch and we can let you know what you can do near you.
