Summary

Parkinson's UK is looking for someone who can volunteer for 2-3 hours once a month to support a Parkinson's Cafe in Gloucester.

Detailed description

Parkinson’s changes lives. From the day of diagnosis, people with Parkinson’s and their loved ones need to know we’re by their side.


At St Oswald's Retirement Village's in Gloucester, we have a café for people with Parkinson’s and their friends and families to come and informally get to know other people in their situation. The café takes place monthly, on a Monday afternoon, so people can just pop along for a cuppa, a chat & an informal catch up.


We are now looking for someone to run the café. The role is mainly to meet & greet people on the day of the café and let people know/remind them in advance the date the next café is booked for, so pretty straightforward we hope!


If you like meeting people, are organised & friendly then you are the person for this role.


We'll ask you to complete an online form on the Parkinson's UK website. Expenses are paid and there is straightforward online induction training. No experience of Parkinson's is needed but a friendly and caring manner is essential.
