Volunteer Telford

Get Involved in Adult Social Care

Are you an expert with lived experience of Adult Social Care?

We are looking for volunteers who currently or have in the past accessed Adult Social Care, care and support services to work with us. To ensure that those who have lived experience (experts by experience) are heard, valued, and can inform, question, and challenge our developments and practice. 

We are looking for volunteers to join our various boards, get involved in projects and pieces of time-limited co-production activity.

This may include:

- Providing feedback or sharing experiences with decision makers

- Reviewing policies and procedures

- Assisting in recruitment processes

- Networking in a positive way with other people who have an interest or access adult social care

- Commissioning and contracting activities – involvement in commissioning new or reviewing existing services

- Reviewing public information prior to release to ensure accuracy and readability

Dealing with face-to-face, phone and online enquiries, supported by the team.

Reception and front of house duties, helping around the cashier desk.

Completing administration procedures accurately.

Arranging collections of donations via our local van teams.

AFC Telford are looking to recruit more volunteers to help on match days at the Telford Ground.

Would you like to be part of a friendly team of volunteers, and can you spare a few hours on Saturdays and sometimes during the week, for home games only?

Not every game requires a full steward crew and there are occasions when we need people to cover illness etc. for our regular staff; if you can’t commit to every game don’t worry, once we have a full team, others can cover you once in a while so we can be flexible.

Are you the right person for the role?

AFC Stewards

Matchday stewards are an important part of ensuring that the New Bucks Head Stadium is a safe and friendly environment to watch football and other events.

Time requirement: 5 hrs on Saturdays and some weekday evenings.

Full training will be given, and you will be supported by your supervisor and team.

Whatever you bring to the table, however often you can help, volunteering with Scouts can change young people's lives.

No previous experience with young people? No problem.

Whether you'd like to help out week-after-week or whenever-you-can, we provide training, learning opportunities and cups of tea – every step of the way.

We need help with planning programmes, youth leadership, administration, behind-the-scenes support, equipment & site maintenance, trusteeship & adult leadership, communications & publicity, and more.

With 13 Groups across Shropshire Severn and Teme Scout District alone, we'll always be able to find an opportunity near you!
