CREST Waltham Forest in partnership with Qalb Asian Mental Health Service seeks flexible, committed volunteers for between 1 and 4 hours per week to offer a befriending and mentoring service to local people with mental health problems. Volunteers of ALL ages, from ALL walks of life and ability, and from ALL cultures, are encouraged to get involved. We are very keen to involve both older users (i.e., 30 and above) as well as individuals who use, or have used, mental health services. However, if you are younger, don't let this put you off! The main requirements are reliability, maturity, commitment, consistency, patience, a non-judgemental attitude and an ability to listen. If you have these qualities and attitudes, contact Malcolm on 020-8520-1592. Alternatively, email m.couldridge@crestwf.org.uk Reasonable expenses will be paid and training/ongoing support is provided.
