As a Reception Support Volunteer, you’ll be working as part of the Forth Valley team. The team supports people with their or their loved ones’ drug and/or alcohol issues. No two days are the same and we treat every person who comes into our service as an individual, so being flexible, curious and a good listener are key.
At Change Grow Live we strive to ensure our services are warm and welcoming environments. Your role in reception will be the first point of contact within the service, greeting all our visitors promptly in a friendly and courteous manner. We will support you in this volunteering role by ensuring that you receive regular supervision, and have someone on site who you can approach for day-to-day advice and guidance. In return for the time you give you will receive valuable training and gain experience and skills. You’ll be making a real difference too.

Talkable offers a talkline to anyone suffering from panic or anxiety.
We noticed some of the users were too anxious to call at first so we decided to open up a messenger service over Facebook so they can ease into phoning.
The message line role would require you to provide the listening service over Facebook. You would be required to talk to people to put them at ease and offer to call them over Facebook. You would also be encouraging people to schedule a call in with the phone line or just encourage them to use the phone line themselves but if they are too anxious you would just continue to talk to them over messenger .
An excellent opportunity to help in our vital work. All help makes a difference and is greatly appreciated.

This initiative is about planting varieties of apple trees in any suitable space available. The blossoms are excellent for honey bees which are under threat. Apple varieties that are under threat of being lost are also maintained.
Any fruit is to be made available for communities to use as they wish. Fruit may be used for eating directly, for cooked products and for cider making. Any profit from apples cropped will be returned to the community as well.
Volunteers are needed to assist the project by :
• Digging a hole.
• Partly backfill with compost.
• Place the apple tree, tree support and protection as required into the hole.
• Complete backfill and water as appropriate.
• Label with apple variety, its primary use, name of volunteer, date planted.
• Feel good for helping the bees, the planet and our communities.
Initially we are looking at two sites:
1. Grove Nursery at Hazelhead.
2. Cove Woodland Trust, South Cove Road.
More sites will be developed across Aberdeen and the North East and other volunteering and job opportunities may arise as the project develops. All aspects of grafting, pruning etc. can be arranged for volunteers showing the correct aptitudes.
A fantastic opportunity to help an exciting initiative. All help greatly appreciated. For more details please contact Brian Allan, Volunteer & Funding Co-ordinator at E Mail: brianaltenscc2@gmail.com or Tel.: 07751275757.
