- Help build their confidence to try new things or attend appointments.
Could you commit to an hour or two a week? If so, we’d love to hear from you.
What’s in it for you?
This is an opportunity to make a real difference to people’s lives by giving them the confidence to move towards more independent living.
Along the way you’ll:
