Do you enjoy getting out and about and chatting to different people along the way? If so, the role of Promotions Volunteer is perfect for you! We're looking for someone who is a great communicator to spread the word about what we do here at Mearns Kirk Helping Hands. The role includes dropping off leaflets and information at targeted locations across East Renfrewshire, making connections with other organisations to let them know what we do, helping with promotional events in venues such as shopping centres and supermarkets and assisting project staff to consider other ways to successfully promote the charity.
The time required for this role is 1-2 hours a week but completely flexible to suit you. In promoting Mearns Kirk Helping Hands, you will be letting others know what services we provide. T his will help people link in to our groups and activities and feel more connected or become more involved in their community.
You will receive support from project staff and out of pocket expenses will be reimbursed.
Mearns Kirk Helping Hands is based in Newton Mearns and we aim to improve health and wellbeing and reduce isolation and loneliness in our community. We do this by providing a range of groups and activities throughout the week including Tai Chi, Blether & Brew Coffee Afternoon, Friendship Club and a Men's Breakfast Club. We also have a befriending project for people aged 65+ who are feeling lonely or isolated and would like the companionship of a volunteer befriender. We are volunteer led and cannot provide any of the services we do, without our amazing volunteer team. We are community helping itself.
