Dementia Walking Buddy One-to-One Volunteer Support

The volunteer role would be to go out for a local health and wellbeing walk with an individual living with dementia, this could be to the nearby park or the local library. This role could have a real impact on the individual living with dementia while also making a real difference to the carer who is looking after this person, by providing them with a much needed short break. This volunteering opportunity is both rewarding and worthwhile and flexible while also providing the chance to learn and develop new skills. We provide training, on-going support, paid expenses and disclosure check.
