Grangemouth Old People’s Welfare Volunteers

Posted on April 29, 2016

Grangemouth Old People’s Welfare are looking for volunteers to help with either of their two services: the café and the hairdressers.

The café operates on Tuesday mornings and afternoons between 10:30am – 2:30pm. Volunteers would be expected to help in the kitchen and to serve tea, coffee and lunches.

The café normally feeds between 50-60 people, and work in conjunction with Community Care, who bus the clients to the café.

The hairdressers operates Tuesdays and Thursdays 10am – 2pm and Friday 10am – 1pm. Volunteers will learn:

how to shampoo
take out rollers
neutralise perms
help to keep the salon clean and tidy

Volunteers interested in this opportunity do not need to have any previous experience, as training will be provided.

Both opportunities are open to those aged over 16 and take place in Talbot House, Talbot Street, Grangemouth FK3 8HU.

For further information regarding this opportunity, please contact the Volunteer Team by phone: 01324 692000, or email: info@cvsfalkirk.org.uk
