Activity Group Coordinator - Bramhall Outside the box cafe

REF: 699c28f8c575d

As an activity group coordinator, you’ll plan, organise and schedule monthly activity groups in your local area. This is an administrative role that requires communicating and socialising with older people and volunteers from all walks of life.

The activity group will be at the same community venue and will include older people, activity group leads, drivers, and the activity group coordinator. Activity groups last two hours and will include an activity that gets people moving such as: dance, chair exercises, boules, skittles or boccia.

Activity groups are free monthly groups that are open to older people who are lonely, isolated and in need of companionship. Activity groups are a great way for older people to stay active and to make new friends in their local area.

Role

Welcoming and supporting new volunteers into the activity group so they can start volunteering with confidence.

Welcoming new older people to the activity group and contacting them before their first activity group so that they feel welcome and comfortable.
