We are looking for people to join our team of volunteers and support us at our weekly clubs at the Anchorage in Gosport.
- Kurling - Wednesday afternoons - 4.30 - 6.00pm
- Line Dancing on Thursday afternoons - 1.00 to 2.30pm.
- Kurling - Saturday morning 10.00-12.00pm
These roles would require you to be positive and demonstrate a willingness to help us deliver a fantastic service to the members of our clubs. Ideally, you will be a team player and happy to get involved in any aspect of the club meetings. This could involve ensuring the venue is safe and welcoming for our members; this will include setting the room up appropriately, helping any members with limited mobility, engaging with our members and helping with the activities and refreshments. You may also have a specific skill or interest you would like to share with our members; we’re always on the lookout for new activities – if so we’d be very interested to hear from you. We encourage volunteers to get involved in the planning of future activities of the club too. Our clubs are largely volunteer led so you will always be working as part of a team of volunteers.
If this specific
club meeting doesn’t suit your availability, please do get in touch as we have
over 30 clubs across Hampshire
Why volunteer with Brendoncare?
Brendoncare offer a range of services from community support and clubs, through to extra care housing and residential care, helping thousands of people across the South of England. These services are designed to empower people to live their whole life well, and it is largely down to the dedication, kindness and forward thinking of our volunteers that we are able to do so.
Brendoncare
believes that without diversity we will be unable to fulfil our vision. We
would like to hear from people who share a strong belief in our vision and
values. We have a range of volunteer roles to suit people, regardless of age,
background, or whether you can get out and about or want to volunteer from
home; we’d like to hear from you.
What are the benefits for you?
This role allows
you to develop at your own pace gaining experience, skills, confidence and

expenses, such as travel and undertake an enhanced DBS check – at no cost to
you. All volunteers are automatically entitled to free Brendoncare community membership, giving you access to a wide
range of services.
Keeping you safe in your volunteer role
Health & Safety
is everyone’s responsibility in law. Our responsibility to keep our volunteers,
staff and everyone in Brendoncare safe is embedded at every level of what we
do. We want people to have the best experience of working and living with us,
we want our staff and volunteers to have the most up to date information and
tools, and we want to respond quickly to, and learn from concerns when things
aren’t right.
Who are we looking for?

you to be a confident communicator and a team player with a positive, calm and
welcoming approach. No experience is required as all training will be provided.
