Frequency & commitment

The time required for this role really depends on the needs of the individuals we are supporting. We would suggest expecting to contribute around 1 hour for listening and talking virtual support, 2hrs for providing support in person. When committing your time please bear in mind that an isolated person may start their journey with a phone call, then progress to in person meetings. This journey usually takes around 12 weeks.
