Location: Focus Birmingham, with community-based working as required
Hours: Approximately 3.5 hours per week
Contract: Volunteer

Role Overview

We are looking for friendly and enthusiastic Activity Volunteers to support our growing range of social groups and activities for people with sight loss.

Our groups provide valuable opportunities for people to socialise, build confidence and enjoy a range of activities, including seated exercise, quizzes, guest speakers and other social and creative activities.

As an Activity Volunteer, you will help create a welcoming and inclusive environment where everyone feels comfortable, supported and able to get involved.

What You'll Do

Encourage social interaction and help attendees make connections.
Provide sighted guidance when required.
Support staff in welcoming new attendees and helping groups to grow.
Encourage people to take part in activities.
Gather ideas and feedback from attendees for future activities and events.
Complete any training relevant to the role.

What We're Looking For

You don't need previous volunteering experience, but you should be:

Friendly, approachable and welcoming.
A good listener and communicator.
Empathetic and understanding towards people living with sight loss.
Willing to learn more about sight loss.
Happy to get involved in a variety of activities.
Flexible and reliable.
Committed to the aims and values of Focus Birmingham.

Desirable

It would be beneficial, but not essential, if you have:

Knowledge or personal or professional experience of sight loss.
Previous volunteering experience.
Experience within a social group, community or similar setting.

What You'll Get From Volunteering With Us

As a Focus Birmingham volunteer, you'll have the opportunity to:

Make a meaningful difference to the lives of people with sight loss.
Gain valuable experience within a charity and community setting.
Develop your communication, confidence and interpersonal skills.
Receive relevant training and ongoing support.
Meet new people and become part of the Focus Birmingham community.
Build experience that can support your personal and professional development.
Gain valuable experience to add to your CV and future applications.
Be part of a friendly and supportive team.
Be invited to wider Focus Birmingham events and celebrations, including our Focus Conference and Summer Social.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

At Focus Birmingham, we are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion. We value the unique experiences, perspectives and strengths that people bring and welcome applications from people of all backgrounds.
