Deafblind Cymru is a charity that supports indviduals who have a combined sight and hearing difficulty. Without appriopriate support, for someone who has lost or is losing their sight and hearing the World can be a lonely, confusing and potentially dangerous place. Volunteers are invaluable to our work.

-         To establish and build a befriending relationship

-         To visit an identified person at a mutually convenient time and place to engage in activities appropriate to normal friendships (Deafblind UK will work to match you with an individual with similar interests or who would benefit from your life experiences)

-         Where appropriate, to use your personal vehicle to transport deafblind people to these activities, whilst adhering to the role profile of a volunteer driver. (Deafblind UK will pay your expenses to the point of meeting the deafblind person; any costs to travel to activities should then be met by the deafblind person and will not be paid by Deafblind UK.)

-         To provide regular updates of your volunteering activity to your supervisor

-        To provide a regualr commitment of time and provide a much notice of any absence as possible
