Volunteering

The Liverpool and South Sefton Branch relies on the dedicated work and support of volunteers, and we very much appreciate the skills and experience that volunteers can bring to the branch.

We can offer a variety of exiting volunteering roles, such as those shown below:

• Maintaining Skills Volunteers. We run several Maintaining Skills Groups in which we encourage people with dementia to take part in stimulating activities, and are always looking for volunteers to work one-on-one with group members. Click here for a detailed description.
• Family Support Volunteers. To assist the branch’s Family Support Worker to help manage client cases, helping to provide support, information and advice to a variety of clients, arranging appointments with clients and so on. Click here for a detailed description.
• Fundraising Volunteers. You could help with traditional fundraising (eg street collections, organising sponsorship events etc), seek support from local businesses or help develop new fundraising strategies. Click here for a detailed description.
• Home Visiting Volunteers. Can you offer companionship and friendship to people with dementia?  Could you help them to participate in specialist activities designed to stimulate and encourage them? Click here for a detailed description.
• Administration Volunteers. If you have office or computer skills, perhaps you could help run our busy office.  Help with mailings, taking calls from a range of clients and professionals, getting the newsletter out to our members are examples of admin duties you could help with.
