Volunteers are an essential part of the running
of The Nerve Centre. If you think that you would like to join the
dedicated team of volunteers then you should contact
us.
You should be conscientious, a good listener,
able to think for yourself, able to share your experiences where relevant, and
recognise that people affected by neurological disorders often have reason to
request privacy, confidentiality and sensitivity. You should be prepared
to be security checked and provide character references. But once that
process is over, all we ask is that you offer perhaps only two hours per week to
help someone else find an answer, a useful contact, an address, a phone number,
a listening ear or just let them be themselves in a friendly non judgemental
atmosphere.
Your contribution is only paid with a thank you,
appropriate training, support from a dedicated Committee and at least one free
cup of tea or coffee each time you come in! But the rewards can be more
valuable than money.
If you think you have what it takes, then we'd
love to hear from you. Contact us by phone on 01847 890996, by calling in
to the Centre at 5A High Street, Thurso or by e-mailing us at admin@nervecentre.org.uk
We too, will respect your privacy and will keep any personal details you reveal
strictly on a need to know basis.
