VOLUNTEER CASE OFFICER
Across the UK, our 60+ local branches work with disabled people to help them live the lives they choose. Our network of skilled volunteers respond to thousands of requests each year to design and make customised equipment free of charge.
Our Case Officers are a vital part of our local branch activities. They use their organisational and IT skills, sometimes along with a knowledge of engineering, to make sure their branch is best able to support people.
What the role involves
This is a varied role that each branch tends to do a bit differently, but it will involve:
• Processing and allocating cases which have come to the branch
• You may have engineering experience or be a skilled craftsperson, but this is not essential
• Using our online referral portal to manage and update case notes
• Attending regular meetings of the local branch
We can support you to develop the skills you need for this role, and there’s an induction that covers all the areas above. You’ll also have chance to discuss your role and any additional needs with us.
What you’ll need for this role
• Warm, approachable and confident to call referrers/clients to initiate discussions
• Comfortable working with people, listening to them and understanding their needs
• Able to apply our risk management system
• Able to keep people’s personal details safe
• Willing to follow Remap policies and procedures – and a commitment to our values
You’ll also need to complete the induction checklist and a reference check.
If it works better for you, there’s a possibility this role could be done remotely.
Why volunteer
When you volunteer with us, you join a community of committed people with a passion for helping to improve the lives of others. We’re a volunteer led organisation and we couldn’t do what we do without your hard work, skills and commitment.
N.B. We’ll reimburse any out-of-pocket expenses during your time with us.
REMAP exists to improve the quality of life for people who experience short or long-term disability through infirmity, illness or ageing.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

It’s shaping up to be a busy year at Locate International, with a lot of important stories to tell. We need people who can help us tell them – and play a huge part in resolving cases.
We’re looking for more people to join as volunteer media officers – this will involve writing press releases for our missing and unidentified appeals, giving interviews and forging partnerships with broadcasters and publishers.
The right people will be able to write well, will ideally have a journalistic background, and will have experience dealing with different media outlets and their demands. But they must also be able to work with sensitivity and care.
We meet for an hour every Tuesday night on Zoom, and volunteers are expected to contribute an average of six hours a week.
At the heart of our mission is supporting investigations, improving practices, and ensuring every effort is made to find the answers people deserve.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
