Friendly Visitor - Northern Respite Care

Northern Healthcare VOLUNTEER Association
Logo for Northern Healthcare VOLUNTEER Association

Life can be pretty lonely for our older generation who choose to stay in their own home and for those who care for them 24/7. You can make a genuine, positive difference by giving respite to the carer by visiting and offering friendship, chats and opportunities to their loved one to go for coffee, appointments or to the shops.

Duties may include: Sitting with the care recipient in their home for a chat, taking them out for shopping or medical appointments, playing games and reading. The volunteer will use their own vehicle which will need to be registered and comprehensively insured. Out of pocket expenses, including travel, are reimbursed. Training provided.

You can not apply for this role as it is no longer available.
