Book trolley volunteer

Are you interested in reading? Do you like chatting to people?
At the Bellfield centre, on the Stirling Health and Care Village site, a book trolley service is run by volunteers who visit the units weekly. We are looking for someone to join the Wednesday afternoon team and go round the Argyle Suite with a selection of books.

People in the Bellfield centre are in single rooms, and may not be able to get out without assistance, so even if they don’t want to borrow a book, they often enjoy a chat.
Can you help the team?

Experience required

A friendly personality with an interest in reading and in helping people to select books to read.

Restrictions

Minimum age: 50
PVG scheme membership required. Support will be given to apply for this.
