Willen Hospice are looking at expanding their volunteer team by recruiting Patient & Carer Support Volunteers.  Volunteers will offer individual support to adult patients and their carers.

Volunteers will need to demonstrate that they can:

• Communicate effectively, particularly demonstrating excellent listening skills
• Be able to perform well in emotional and stressful situations
• Be flexible in approach, giving up to 8 – 10 hours a month
• to meet with clients
• attend monthly supervision and any necessary training

Attendance will be welcomed from anyone over the age of 21 from all sections of the community though, regrettably, they will not be able to consider applicants who have had a significant bereavement in the past 2 years.
