Listening Volunteer

Posted on December 2, 2016

Could you give people the chance to express how they feel, share their experience of living and help them find in themselves the strength they need?

Becoming a volunteer with the Samaritans is to open up a new way of life. You will understand more but judge less, sympathise more but advise less. You will learn to listen beyond the words and see beyond the obvious.

In learning more about the lives of others you may learn more about your own. This opportunity takes place in Falkirk and is open to those aged 18 and over. Timings can be arranged to suit the volunteer.

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