Summary

We are looking for friendly volunteers to help at our indoor short mat bowl sessions on Monday afternoons.

Detailed description

Our indoor short mat bowls activity at our hub in Norwich is focused on improving social interaction and physical activity, by providing opportunities for clients to take part in something that they may have thought was inaccessible with sight loss. Due to popular demand, we are putting on some new sessions for our clients. We are looking for volunteers who can:

 

  • Help to set up the equipment
  • Provide assistance and support during the games
  • Keep score of the games if required
  • Bring a friendly and encouraging atmosphere to the sessions


Experience with playing bowls would be preferred but is not essential.


We are looking for caring and supportive volunteers who can help to create a fun and inclusive atmosphere.


Becoming a volunteer is a wonderful opportunity to make a difference in your local community and to meet a wide variety of people from different walks of life. We also offer


  • Regular advice, support and training (including visual awareness training)
  • Payment of out of pocket expenses agreed in advance


What we will provide to volunteers
