PANGBOURNE & DISTRICT VOLUNTEER CENTRE

ARE LOOKING FOR MORE HELPERS
PLEASE DO JOIN US
BECOMING A VOLUNTEER DOES NOT MEAN TAKING ON ANY UNWELCOME OR HEAVY COMMITMENT.
IT SIMPLY MEANS THAT YOU ARE WILLING TO BE ASKED.
 
What would we ask you to do? Our main need is for drivers because most requests are for transport on short journey to local surgeries, hairdressers, dentist, hospitals etc. We offer a mileage payment to defray your petrol costs.
 
The other important job is manning the office to receive telephone requests - when a request is made we telephone around our Volunteers until we find someone willing to take it on. We are perfectly happy for anyone to say "sorry, cannot do" if the job is inconvenient, or not to your taste, and we expect you to say so.
The office is based in the Committee Room, of Pangbourne Village Hall. Two volunteers are on duty 9.30 - 11.30 Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
 
This really is something worth doing and the appreciation shown by those we help is reward in itself. It is also a great way to make new friends, and we are a friendly group, so do please join us. For further particulars all you need to do is telephone the Centre on 0118 984 4586 between 09.30 am and 11.30 am Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday or just call in during those hours.
