This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
Do you enjoy reading and want to make a real difference?
As a Reader Volunteer, you'll provide one-to-one support to blind and partially sighted people by helping with everyday reading and writing. Whether you're reading letters, completing forms, sharing the latest news or enjoying a favourite book together, your time can make daily life easier while providing valuable companionship.
Visits take place in members' homes at times that suit you both, giving you the opportunity to build a friendly and trusted relationship over time.
We're looking for caring, reliable volunteers with a clear speaking voice, good communication skills and a patient, understanding approach. No previous experience is needed—just confidence in reading aloud and a willingness to help. We'd ask for a commitment of at least six months to provide consistency for the person you support.
If you enjoy reading and would like to make a meaningful difference in someone's life, we'd love to hear from you.
Please note: This role requires an Enhanced DBS check, as you'll be supporting blind and partially sighted adults on a one-to-one basis.
