Children’s Hospices Across Scotland (Chas) are inviting people from across the North East and Moray to help them make a difference to the lives of young people in 2020.
The team at the charity are appealing for residents from the regions who are seeking a positive new opportunity to join Chas as nursing support volunteers.
Chas is known for their vital work at supporting families of children with critical and sometimes incurable conditions.
Volunteering Development Manager Carrie Watt said: “We are committed to making sure that we help keep the joy alive for children and families, no matter how little time they may have together and that each moment is filled with as much happiness and fun as possible.
“Becoming a Nursing Support Volunteer is a fantastic opportunity for individuals who have a background in nursing or childcare to build on their existing skills but the opportunity to volunteer is open to all as full training will be given.”
The volunteer opportunities available with children’s charity are flexible and is suited to best meet the needs of the children, parents and guardians that are supported by the Chas at home team across North East and Moray.
Due to the rural locations of many families in this region, access to a car is necessary to attend the homes and for outings.
Individuals interested in the role must have a current membership with the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) scheme and be over 18 years of age.
