About The Role
If you’d like to support your local community by helping to ensure that people who are worried about or affected by dementia are aware of the support and advice services we offer, we have just the role for you!
You’ll support local events, hold information stands, and display leaflets in a variety of venues and locations highly visible in your community, such as libraries and GP surgeries. You’ll make sure the information publicised in your community is up to date and accurate. You’ll also establish connections with local organisations and community groups to help achieve widespread awareness of the support we offer. As a representative of Alzheimer's Society, we will provide you with branded clothing, and you may also have the opportunity to be included in event pictures to showcase the Society work in the local media.
This awareness volunteer role will support the Selby Dementia Adviser team in raising awareness of the support available to those people living in and around Selby that are affected by dementia.
Applicants will need to travel independently to deliver leaflets in Selby and the surrounding area and be able to support with holding awareness raising stands at various times throughout the year.
