Is retirement on the horizon? Are you not quite ready to put your feet up? Do you feel you still have so much to give? If all of these statements call out to you then you are part of the population that we want on board with us. With so many skills and levels of experience amongst you, why not put it to good use by volunteering within the community.
Although often overlooked as a potential venture after retirement, volunteering is a great way to stay active, meet new people and put your free time towards a positive cause. Not only that but it provides you with the opportunity to learn skills from others and gain personal experience within a new sector.
If you’re still with us, then About with Friends could be the next step following your retirement. Working within a great team, we will find you a role that utilises your well-crafted skills to develop and broaden them in a new environment. Community based projects will showcase the importance of charity work and will give you that sense of accomplishment that you still crave.
Not only will the work make you feel good but the social opportunities are also rewarding. It’s the ideal way to meet likeminded people in your area through locally held coffee mornings. These monthly meetings will allow you the chance to socialise with other volunteers, discussing the current plans of our organisation and developing ideas to move the community forward.
If you think you could provide us with a fantastic pair of helping hands, then we would love to hear from you. Get in touch today to start your volunteering journey!
