We are recruiting volunteers to support the delivery of our weekly Musical Memories Singing Circle live music sessions for people living with dementia and their care partners. This may include supporting a small group of attendees or even more 1:1 support in the session.
Dementia and Carer Support
As a Dementia Activity & Carer Support Volunteer, you will help us create a welcoming and inclusive session for people living with dementia and unpaid carers.
Our Stockton group brings together our Woodland Whisperers nature-based activities with our existing dementia and carer drop-in, so no two sessions are quite the same.
Your role may include:
Volunteers are also welcome to bring their own interests, ideas and skills to the group.
No previous experience of dementia, caring or health and social care is required. Guidance and support will be provided by our experienced team.
Useful skills include:
An interest in nature, gardening, wildlife, crafts, music or other activities is very welcome, but you certainly don’t need to be an expert.
We are looking for volunteers who are:
You don’t need specialist dementia knowledge or particular activity skills. Enthusiasm, kindness, curiosity and a genuine enjoyment of spending time with people are much more important.
