Volunteer Home Befriender (Have a coffee and chat with Chrissy)

Carly is in her 30s and lives with her family in Newtownards. She is looking for a friendly, female volunteer who is available to pay her a visit each week on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Friday afternoon. Carly enjoys a good old natter, listening to audiobooks and arts and crafts. She used to attend a local creative writing group but, due to her sight loss, no longer attends. Carley often feels quite isolated and would love the opportunity to have a regular visitor and someone to talk to on a regular basis.

Ideally, you will be a driver with your own transport, with a genuine interest in other people. A good listener available to make a regular weekly visit.
