Ambassador Volunteer

NH50plus is a multi-cultural group for older people across North Hertfordshire which aims to combat social isolation. We do this by organising monthly forum meetings which are social get-togethers, open to all. We invite a guest speaker to talk about a topic of vital interest to older people. We also arrange low cost events and trips to local places of interest and to attractions further afield too. This service is a lifeline to those who do not usually get the opportunity to get out and about.

In order to keep the group running, it is vitally important that we continue to raise awareness of what we do and what we can offer local people.

Therefore, we need someone who is friendly, confident and enthusiastic to represent us within the local community and share news about upcoming meetings, activities and events.

The responsibilities of the role include:

• Attending monthly meetings and periodic outings to gain an understanding of the NH50plus offer
• Speaking to other community groups, residential homes and statutory organisations to promote our service
• Representing NH50plus at local events and forum meetings to raise awareness of the group and attract new members
• Building relationships with professionals who may signpost people to the group

In return for your time, we can offer you:

• A friendly community
• New connections
• The feel good factor
• A chance to learn new skills
• The opportunity to attend low cost outings with food, transport and entertainment included

If you feel passionately about helping a local organisation that supports elderly people to live well then please get in touch.
