Our volunteers offer on-going support to people affected by stroke. Members who are all stroke survivors meet regularly to enjoy the company of others who understand stroke, helping them to rebuild confidence as they adapt to life after stroke.
We are looking for people who enjoy working with others and have a rapport with people recovering from a Stroke.
You can help the group in a variety of ways:
· supporting and encouraging conversation either on a one to one or in the main group, to help members to build up confidence in communicating with others.
· helping with board games, art, crafts and use of technology such as iPad,
· helping with refreshments, managing membership forms, supporting the treasurer etc.
Full induction, training and support provided for someone with good listening skills and a willingness to learn.
The Group meets every Tuesday and every second Wednesday at the Milford on Sea Community; the hours for volunteers are flexible.
