Education Volunteer with PSPA in Scotland

PSPA
VO83311

PSPA is a national charity providing support and information to people living with PSP and CBD, while funding research into treatments and ultimately a cure. We rely entirely on voluntary donations. You can see more about this here at https://pspassociation.org.uk/
PSP and CBD are rare and little known. Education Volunteers can improve this situation. Our volunteers raise awareness with health and social care professionals and in local communities by offering informative talks to interested groups. These talks are set up on an ad hoc basis, a small number of times in a year and as close as possible to the volunteers’ local area - A driving licence and access to a car is desirable.
