A lot of these projects involve talking about and demonstrating the basics of first aid to community groups that can include children, young people, and vulnerable adults. The role is all about promoting first aid awareness and helping to achieve our mission to create a nation of lifesavers. The communities and schools we work with can be located across West Dunbartonshire and its surrounding areas. We will make you aware of the volunteering opportunities available and at that time let you know details regarding address and organiser details. Able to work as part of a team, excellent communication skills, excellent organisation and planning skills, positive attitude, flexible and adaptable to needs of charity. Please apply if you have experience of public speaking, a basic understanding of first aid, or maybe you’re studying a medical related degree (or even have one) and looking to volunteer.
