As a Drop-In volunteer, you will be here to support and socialise with the service users who are using the service on that day. Sometimes someone just needs someone to sit and have a cup of tea with them and your role would be to be that person. Our service is a drop-in centre, and our hope is our volunteers will interact with service users and make their experience here more enjoyable. This will help promote social inclusion, support positive interactions and building confidence for our service users.
