LifeCare: Volunteer Opportunity

We are looking for a new volunteer to join our team!

Are you sociable, enthusiastic and want to be apart of a charity that tackles loneliness and isolation? We’d love to hear from you!

We are looking for a new hub greeter to join us on Mondays in our LifeCare building.

LifeCare is a registered charity with an 85 year history of providing uplifting support to older people around Edinburgh. Our hub at the heart of Stockbridge is home to our office, cafe, day club and is a bustling centre where multiple activities take place throughout the day.

You’d primarily be greeting visitors, providing a warm welcome and answering calls. There will be a few weeks of shadowing to get yourself comfortable with the space.

One of our current hub greeters had this to say “My favourite reason for volunteering at LifeCare is quite simply all the wonderful people that make LifeCare the incredibly place that it is.

“It is an absolute joy to be a volunteer here and spend time with everyone.”

To register your interest, or for more information, please get in touch with sarahduckmanton@lifecare-edinburgh.org.uk.

Volunteer opportunity with Vintage Vibes

Do you love playing the piano and a good sing along? Our over 60s singing group, Vocal Vibes is looking for a fabulous volunteer to join them on piano.

The group brings together isolated older people to build confidence and connections through the shared love of singing!

As a volunteer you will accompany the song leader in the sessions and performances and collaborate with the group to select songs from throughout the decades. Fab piano and musical skills are needed and experience working with singing groups would be great but not essential.

This is an in-person volunteering role. Vocal Vibes meet on the 2nd and 4th Friday of each month from 11am -1pm in an accessible city centre venue close to several transport links.

If you think you can help, please get in touch at hello@vintagevibes.org.uk or visit vintagevibes.org.uk/help-us/get-involved/.
