About You
We are looking for an outgoing, sociable and warm person, who's also a good listener. As a befriender, you will provide companionship and meet up regularly with one of our residents. If you have a couple of hours to spare and can commit to volunteering on a regular basis, we'd love to hear from you.

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
