Full job description

For people recovering from illness, or who are facing a recent diagnosis, being able to stay in their own home can make all the difference. Our Support at Home Volunteers help with shopping, getting to appointments or checking in with a phone call. Spread the power of kindness with us and help make a difficult and distressing time a little bit easier. We would like you to: - Be available to volunteer on a regular basis. - Be available to volunteer 2 hours per week. - Be comfortable with lone working. - Have held a driving licence for at least 2 years which allows you to drive in the UK. - Have use of your own vehicle. - Can commit to volunteering for at least 12 months. - *Due to the nature of this role, applicants must undergo an Access NI check. Applicants will be asked to provide ID documents in support of the Access NI check.* Diversity is something we celebrate. We want you to be able to bring your authentic self to the Red Cross and feel that you belong. We want to create an inclusive environment, and promote and spread the power of kindness. As part of creating an inclusive space we have an expenses policy that prioritises volunteers not being out of pocket for expenses linked to your role. If up front costs are difficult, you can speak to your volunteering manager about this to find alternatives. We welcome refugees, asylum seekers and others currently in the UK to volunteer with us. We want volunteering to be accessible to everyone. **Health and Safety Statement** We take an individual approach to ensuring your safety. We may ask you to complete a simple risk assessment and will also have a conversation with you to discuss and identify any adjustments you may need. *Unfortunately, we can’t accept applications from 15 – 17-year-olds for this role. Please get in touch and we can support you to find another role in your area.* If you have any questions before applying, please contact us at [[email protected]](url)
