All volunteers receive
training so that they feel comfortable in their role. We also undertake CRB checks on all of our
volunteers. Most residents would love
to have a volunteer who just comes in to chat to them once a week. These 'one
to one' volunteers are vital to Newlands. Some residents simply want to have
a friendly face to play a game of cards etc with or come in and read or write
for them. Help is needed in the
activities area to assist residents to paint, draw or make craft items. Craft
Day is Wednesday mornings from 9.30am. Volunteer expenses are paid and hours
are to suit you. You can do as many hours/days as you want and it is a great way
to make new friends. Support Group We
now have a new Support Group who meet bi-monthly on Monday's at 7pm.
This is a great way to help the Home, by organising fundraising, publicity
& awareness of Newlands House. If you have ideas, contacts, good communication
skills and are able to put words in to action, then join the Support Group. Minute
taker required Our
Support Group requires a Minute Taker. If you are interested in helping out
you will need to be available to attend the meetings every 2 months on a
Monday evening, 7pm. They must be conscientious, literate, reliable and able
