Job opportunity at Golden-Oldies Charity - Sing & Smile Session Leader Previous Job Next Job How we brighten lonely lives Our Goldies sessions are fun social groups aimed at older isolated adults, where people come together to sing-along to the popular memory evoking music of the 50s onwards, stretch, smile and laugh. These uplifting daytime sessions bring joy and offer all important opportunities for people to create supportive friendships and links to their local community. It is important to understand that ‘Goldies’ is NOT a choir, our sessions are based on fun times where singing is at the heart, but smiling is the reason. Cliff Richard is Patron. As a Goldies Session Leader you are responsible for providing and assisting in the development of our fun inclusive Sing&Smile sessions. Leaders will have a love of music, an enthusiastic personality with empathy and patience for those attending sessions and a commitment to make a difference to the lives of vulnerable people from local communities. The majority of those attending Goldies sessions across England and Wales are people aged over 60. However since the charity started in 2007 the profile of those attending has changed quite considerably. Many people who attend are fairly active and able but in recent years the number of people attending who are living with dementia has increased as well as attendees with Learning Difficulties, their carers and people with mental health issues. As a Leader you will involve everyone attending in the sessions, listening and adapting the session to suit participants mood or need through the fun sing-a-long style session. Your role is one of the most important ones within our charity as you will be the ‘face’ of Goldies and as more and more sessions are added, one of a team of over 40 leaders across England and Wales. What makes a great Goldies Leader? When asked about Session Leaders, Chief Officer Grenville Jones often replies; ‘There is an obvious comparison between leading a Goldies session and being an entertainment officer at a holiday camp! It is that ability to stand in front of a group of people, to engage with them, understand their needs and make them leave the session looking forward to the next one.’ Our Leaders are provided with a full set of equipment including an iPod and songbooks, or an iPad and projector and full training. Leaders can run one session per month or as many as they can fit in. Goldies sessions take place on the same day of the month - 1st Tuesday or 3rd Monday for example - and either morning or early afternoon. Session leading is an excellent way of supporting your local community, if you're interested in the role please contact Emma at the Goldies office on 01761 470006 or email emma@golden-oldies.org.uk < All Jobs Sing & Smile Session Leader Salary: £25 per session plus 40ppm mileage allowance Hours: 1.5 hours per session Contract Type: Part Time, Freelance Location: Community Centres / Church Halls / Sheltered Housing across B&NES Close Date: Thursday, 31 August 2023 Email Contact: emma@golden-oldies.org.uk < All Jobs Previous Job Next Job Apply for Job

Job opportunity at Headway Bath and District - Trustee Previous Job Next Job Headway Bath & District - a brain injury charity is appealing for volunteers to join their brand-new board of trustees and help support some of the most vulnerable people in society. Carla Snell at Headway Bath & District said: “We are entering an exciting new chapter and are now in the novel position of being able to recruit an entire board of trustees! This is a pivotal moment for the charity; we can’t wait to get started with building our new board and making positive steps forward." “The role of trustee is a voluntary one and as a member of the board you will play a vital role in guiding the vision of the charity, whilst seeing the direct impact you have on the lives of those affected by brain injury.” The charity is keen to hear from people with a background in business, fundraising, commissioning, public relations, marketing, social media, finance, social care, and with clinical experience in the field of brain injury. However, those with other skills that would complement its boards are also encouraged to apply. “There is often a lot of confusion around what it means to be a trustee.” Carla continued. “Many people think they are not experienced enough, old enough or skilled enough to take on this role, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Headway Bath welcomes both experienced trustees and people who are interested in becoming one for the first time.” “We are looking for people with a diverse range of skills and experiences who could really help make a difference to the lives of those with brain injury. We want to bring in committed professionals with lots of passion, enthusiasm, and new ideas.” “Trustees are in the unique position to really blaze a trail and it’s a very important and creative role.” Those applying to be trustees should expect to attend either monthly or bi-monthly board meetings, and local networking/promotional events. Trustees should also expect to occasionally visit the day services to meet clients, staff, and volunteers. Trustees must be aged 18 and over. Trustees will be offered support, training, and networking opportunities through Headway’s national and local networks. Anyone would like to apply to become a trustee at Headway Bath should email trustee.recruitment@headway.org.uk to find out more. < All Jobs Trustee Salary: voluntary role Hours: Monthly / Bi-monthly board meetings and annual strategy day Contract Type: n/a Location: Remote / occasional visits to Bath Close Date: Saturday, 31 December 2022 Email Contact: trustee.recruitment@headway.org.uk < All Jobs Previous Job Next Job Apply for Job
