About The Role
If you’re passionate about empowering people living with dementia to have their voices heard, then we’d love to hear from you!
People living with dementia can often feel lost in decision making processes, particularly in the final stages of their dementia journey. As an Advocate Volunteer, you’ll be visiting people living with dementia in the community to support with advocacy cases and ensure they can express their views, concerns and wishes. Through establishing strong trusting relationships with the people you’re supporting and their carers, you’ll make a huge difference to the lives of people living with dementia, ensuring they can make choices and have their rights upheld.
The Selby and surrounding area Dementia Adviser and Support team are seeking a proactive person to support the team and your local community by helping to ensure that people who are worried about or affected by dementia are aware of the support and advice services we offer - if this is something that you feel passionate about then we have just the role for you!
