VOLUNTEERS / BUDDIES

We need people of all ages who would like to go to a wide range of adult and community learning classes or social and leisure activities as a buddy for an adult with learning difficulties.

It only takes a few hours a week during the day or evening and you’ll be:

  • Enabling someone to do something they would otherwise be unable to do
  • Helping to create a more equal and integrated community
  • Doing something enjoyable

You don't need any special training - we will give you all the information and support you need.

All you need is patience, a sense of humour, some spare time and be open to new and exciting experiences.

You will make new friends and new skills. Buddies' course fees are supported by adult education providers, leisure centres and ourselves.
