Let's Get Together - RVS Volunteers
If you can spare a few hours weekly or monthly to improve the quality of life for people in your area, we are recruiting friendly, helpful volunteers to assist with the delivery of the Readers at Home service. You will need to be a driver, with access to a car. Mileage will be reimbursed. If you are interested, please contact the Royal Voluntary Service on 0783 465 3366.
