Become a Carers Companion

Association of Carers have issued an appeal for volunteers who would like to make a difference to unpaid carer’s lives.

We have a new Carers Companion Service in Hastings, St Leonards and Bexhill, and are looking for people who have a few hours to spare each week to spend time with the carer and their cared for, either at the carer’s home, or on a trip to the shops or garden centre, etc.

The aim is to create a relationship with both the carer and the person they look after, which can help reduce isolation for the carer and eventually enable the carer to have some time to themselves.

• Only 2-4 hours each week

• No experience needed

• No personal care required

• Free training given

• All expenses paid

• Transport can be provided if necessary

For more information, please contact us.
