We're seeking friendly men and women to help out at our groups for people living with dementia and family carers.  An uplifting and rewarding way to spend an afternoon!

The Amesbury Movement for the Mind group meets on Mondays from 2pm to 3.30pm, rotating with Music for the Mind and the Memory Cafe. As well as gentle exercise to music, there is a varied programme which includes singing, talks, activities and a chance to catch up with friends. Dementia professionals are always on hand for an informal chat too. 

Please note the group start time is 2pm, however, volunteers arrive earlier (exact time to be specified by the group organiser) to set up the room, prepare refreshments etc.   

As a group volunteer you will be interacting with our members chatting, listening, joining in and helping to prepare and serve refreshments. 

We offer you training in dementia awareness and provide on-going support to our volunteer team

initially, you will meet with our Volunteer Manager and complete volunteering forms.  We do ask that you provide contact information for two referees, who are not family members and have known you for at least 2 years.  

Interested? 

Then please complete our volunteer sign-up form or phone 01985 624 005
