Volunteer: Awareness Raising, Omagh

What’s involved?

You’ll help us to raise awareness about our advice and support services available in your local area

for people who might benefit from them. You’ll enable the people worried about or affected by

dementia to gain access to the most up to date information about Alzheimer’s Society.

About you:

You’ll be comfortable talking to the general public and health professionals to help them to access

our services. You’ll be willing to learn about dementia and the services we offer and be happy to

talk to people in your local community to help increase the awareness of our local and national

services.

The impact you’ll make:

Our services can be vital to people living with dementia, their carers and their families.

Unfortunately not everyone is aware of the support that we could offer them to make a real

difference to their lives. You’ll help us to reach more people who need advice and support and

connect people living with dementia to services and resources that could make a difference in their

lives.

What you need to know:

We need to ensure that people living with dementia who benefit from our services are safe. In order

for us to do this we interview, check and train our volunteers in on-going roles. If you have

accessibility need we’ll make reasonable adjustments to enable you to volunteer.

We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds, communities and experiences. We will make you

feel welcome, included and respected because together we are united.
