Falkirk and District Association for Mental Health wish to recruit an Activities Volunteer to facilitate their mindful card group.

The card group is based on being a mindful activity where people can come to relax, where the end product of a card is secondary to the experience of being in a safe place with others concentrating on an activity that might take their mind off their troubles. The small group of 5-8 people is aimed at being a starting point for people who would find it difficult to initially attend activities in the community. The group meet one afternoon a week, for 2 hours.

The Activities Volunteer will oversee and support a small group of people who have varied abilities in card making, however you don’t need to be adept at card making, just an interest in crafts. Reliablilty and commitment to the project is essential as well as being non judgemental with good communication skills. An awareness of mental health and its impact would be a benefit.

If you would like further information regarding this opportunity then please contact the Volunteer Team on 01324 692000 or email info@cvsfalkirk.org.uk
