Our reception can be quite a busy are. We have a number of activities throughout the week with a regular group of visitors. As well as this there are visitors who come for appointments with staff or to make use of our welcome space and to use the I.T suite.\u00a0<\/p>

Our receptionist needs to be confident in dealing with visitors as well as answering the phone and taking messages.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

We are looking for people who can help out with our social groups to help organise and help out with activities. Our Ladies and Gents groups each meet up once a week at the Ladder centre and take part in activities that encourage social interaction. We are constantly on the lookout for people who can offer a new opportunity to our groups either by demonstrating a skill or craft and helping others to join in. We are particularly interested in anyone who can offer something that promotes health and wellbeing. You will need to be friendly and outgoing and able to join in and communicate with members. You need to be respectful of others and non judgmental as some members may open up about their personal circumstances and are often looking for support. Specialist skills would be a great help but are not essential. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Our Health walks will take place fortnightly on Thursday mornings. Walk leaders need to be prepared to undergo first aid training and be available to take part in easy pre-prepared routes.\u00a0
They should be able to work as part of a team, have good listening skills and an understanding of safety issues and an understanding of the need for confidentiality.
