Volunteer Program
The Volunteer Co-ordinator‘s work includes introducing new volunteers into the organisation and ensure they fit into a suitable role as well as ensuring volunteers are in place when they say they will be and to arrange cover where necessary. Much of this can be done away from the office using a mobile phone.
Benefit Advisors
Benefit Advisors assist disabled people with filling in forms to make claims for a variety of benefits. This might be one to two hours once per week – or more often if you have time.
