Detailed description
Do you enjoy reading aloud? Or even better, do you have the imagination to create your own stories to entertain someone? The people we support love a good story, you would be a real highlight in someone’s day, if you can spare a little time regularly to engage with a waiting audience.

* An organisation that values volunteers’ individual differences, interests and strengths
* A welcoming, supportive and positive volunteering atmosphere
* Comprehensive support from professional, friendly and trained Discovery staff
* A comprehensive and personal induction to volunteering and your role
* Agreed travel expenses reimbursed

Exact days and times to be discussed.
