Best Buddies
The South Gloucestershire Volunteer Centres are looking for a team of
volunteers across the area for their Best Buddies project. Volunteer
Buddies will partner volunteers with adults who have learning difficulties
and who want to volunteer but need extra support to enable them to do so.
All volunteers will be Criminal Records Bureau checked and receive full
training and support. Training is due to be held during October/November.
If you are interested in volunteering as a buddy, you can contact Yate
Volunteer Centre on 01454 324102 or email
volunteercentreyate@btconnect.com for an
information and application pack.
