Befriender

Posted on May 29, 2015

Falkirk and Clackmannanshire Carers Centre provides information and support to those who are caring for a family member, friend or neighbour who needs help because of long term illness, disability or age-related difficulties.

They are currently recruiting new volunteers to become befrienders within their Carers Befriending Project. Full training will be provided and volunteers will be asked to commit 2 hours per fortnight to be a befriender to an adult or young carer.

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