Opportunity Description

Luv2MeetU and HFT are a charity working with adults with learning disabilities and or autism to provide a fulfilling and engaging life to ensure the best possible experiences and individual requirements for the people we support.

Luv2MeetU (part of the HFT charity) are starting an exciting new programme of face to face and virtual events based at the HFT Forbes Close supported living housing.

We are looking for volunteers to help support any events or hospital/dentist appointments etc. by driving the people we support to where they need to go.

We will work with you depending on the time you have to give to ensure you benefit too either with something special for your CV, training or just knowing that you are helping immeasurably to enhance the lives of the adults we support.

With appointments the date and time cannot be changed so it would be brilliant for us if we could build up a bank of drivers so that we can eventually get to a place where we have a thriving community of adults we support being able to be even more independent whether it is an important appointment or a shopping trip to buy that special birthday present!

 

Requirements

Any experience working with learning disabilities would be useful but not essential. We will provide training and you would be working with our staff and so learn and grow in confidence as you go and as you meet the brilliant personalities of our amazing adults. We don't ask for any set number of days to give a month but a regular time however often, even if just once a month would be beneficial for our staff to be able to plan schedules or to know they can ring you to see if you would be available for a specific appointment.

Apply now
More Info

We provide all training needed, support and reasonable expenses paid. We require references and a DBS check but once all the paperwork is done we just need every-one to have new amazing experiences and to have fun!

For this volunteer role you would need a full UK driving licence.
