Every warm space is unique however all warm spaces will offer a friendly welcome and comfortable environment to meet friends or socialise. Some warm spaces may be able to provide hot drinks and have activities or programmes that people can join in with. Details of all Warm Spaces in Aberdeen are available at https://www.aberdeencity.gov.uk/services/people-and-communities/warm-spaces

Volunteer Visitors help to reduce loneliness and enhance wellbeing for the tenants of Normandy Court extra-care housing development in Dalkeith by leading activities and entertainment for small groups of residents.
Volunteers will plan, set up, lead, and tidy up after activities for small groups of residents with the support of on-site staff. Activities could include carpet bowls, crafts, quizzes, board games, musical entertainment, gentle chair exercise and gardening. With each visit they make, volunteers can expect to feel the immediate impact of donating their time as they help to enhance wellbeing for local people in Midlothian.

Crossroads is a registered charity which has been operating for 37 years in South Ayrshire (although also with a national footprint). We provide a highly needed service in offering a respite service for at home carers. The charity runs with a small office team supported by a team of Care Attendants and over seen by a Management Committee comprising of volunteers who each bring a different set of skills and expertise to aid the operation of the charity.
Our next aim is to raise our profile in South Ayrshire and we would gladly welcome the support of volunteers who would like to share our aim and interest by supporting us, as a volunteer fundraiser.
Ideally the volunteer would have a sales and marketing background, yet it is not mandatory as the sales pitch can be delivered by one of the committee members. The volunteer fundraiser would support by identifying donors, raising the group's profile, writing applications for funding opportunities, organising events, etc.
The group meets on a Tuesday of every second month at 7pm in a meeting room at Biggart Hospital, Prestwick (where the office is located), yet most of the volunteering can easily be done remotely and perhaps meet with the team occasionally as required.
Kindly fill in the contact us form on https://crossroads-sa.org.uk/contact.asp and we will get back to you at our earliest.

Lhanbryde Community Centre has a thriving community cafe that operates 7 days a week. It just doesn't serve great weekend breakfasts and lovely home bakes -- it's also a warm and welcoming place for all members of the community to meet, say hello and socialise.
Volunteers with the cafe can choose from a number of roles: from helping to do prep work and a spot of cooking in the kitchen, or taking food orders and operating the till, or clearing tables, to behind the scenes by helping to fill the dishwasher and keep things tidy in the kitchen. Whatever your preference, there's a place for you. The team needs a few more volunteers to help out just now, and if you could spare 2-3 hours on day and frequency that suits you, that would be grand!
This winter is going to be a very busy one for REAP's energy advisors.
They'll be visiting communities across Moray giving energy advice and helping people find practical ways to cope with the rising costs of energy.
Could you help this team?
A few volunteers are needed to provide a wee bit of practical logistical support to the Energy team during outreach events or workshops. An extra pair of hands, for example, to help up and set down a gazebo, distribute flyers, and perhaps most importantly, practically support the Energy adviser with any small operational tasks that will help the event run as smoothly as possible.
Times are flexible and you don't need to commit to every event... If you'd like to find out more, please just get in touch.
