Summary
We need a qualified yoga instructor to help run a therapy group for patients - with exercises designed to be done sitting down.Detailed description
The seated yoga group, part of our Tulip Centre activities, encourages patients to join in with yoga exercises they can do sitting down.
The group runs weekly, either a morning or an afternoon session. Volunteers lead the activity and help provide the support people need to take part - so you'll need a level of physical fitness yourself and a relevant qualification.
About Tapping House
The Norfolk Hospice is committed to providing outstanding care for people in the local community living with life-shortening illnesses and to their carers, family and friends including bereavement support.
The support provided is tailored to the individual, encompassing their physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs in an understanding, caring and compassionate way, ensuring dignity is maintained throughout.
Care is delivered at the hospice in Hillington, either in the Inpatient Unit, Day Therapy Unit or via one-to-one sessions at the hospice. Care is sometimes provided in people’s own homes.
The current services cost over £2.5 million per year to run; the NHS funds only 32% of this, with the majority coming from the support of local groups, businesses and individuals.
