Voluntary sighted readers wanted!

No matter how good our services are, we can't properly support our users/community well if we don't have a good committee behind the team. If this sounds like you?... We would love you to consider volunteering with us for a few hours per month.
The Rockvale rebound provides printed information e.g. local newspapers etc. on audible digital, free to print impaired people i.e.. blind, deaf-blind & partially sighted people in West Dunbartonshire. The service is only provided thanks to the invaluable help of our team of volunteers.
Someone with spare time is required by the Rockvale Rebound talking newspaper for the blind, in Dumbarton.
Duties: To read newspapers and other sighted printed material once a fortnight (usually on either a Tuesday or a Wednesday evening, at 7 pm in our recording studio at west Bridgend, Dumbarton.
