Association Visitors - West Midlands South

We are looking to recruit volunteer Association Visitors to support people living with MND in locations across the West Midlands.

  • Birmingham (Central & North) & Solihull
  • Coventry & Warwickshire
  • Herefordshire & Worcestershire

Association Visitors (AVs) play a vital, valued and unique role in helping us to ensure people with motor neurone disease (MND) and their families receive the support and services they require.

Do you enjoy listening to and helping people and are you looking for a challenging but rewarding volunteering role? By becoming an Association Visitor and donating your time, energy and skills, you can make a real difference to the lives of people affected by MND.

Country
England
County
Herefordshire, Warwickshire, West Midlands, Worcestershire

Being an Association Visitor will involve contacting people living with MND, or often their carers, via phone or face to face visits depending upon the needs of people and their location.  Due to the nature of MND it is a challenging role, however it is also a highly rewarding one.

As an Association Visitor, you will:

  • offer emotional support to people living with and affected by MND
  • provide information to people living with MND, their carers and families
  • help people living with MND make informed choices
  • help people to access appropriate services / support
  • explain how the MND Association can support people living with MND, their carers and families

The time required is flexible, but we would like our AVs to commit to around 2 to 3 hours every couple of weeks.

Becoming a visitor can be a rewarding, enriching experience. Our AVs come from all walks of life, and all backgrounds. You don’t need personal experience of MND and we provide all our AVs with in-depth training
