Headway Darlington and District supports people with an acquired brain injury who live in Darlington and the surrounding area. We are looking for volunteers who will support our activity sessions which are held weekly at our base in Darlington.
Volunteers will help plan the session with our part time staff member. They will prepare the room for the session, lead the group with the support of other volunteers and encourage members of Headway to join in. They will then tidy away after the session.
We offer activities such as arts and crafts, quizzes, bowling and day trips to local places of interest. We would welcome volunteers with other skills they would like to share.
