Volunteering opportunities

 

New Year Volunteering for 2019!

 

Onside a local charity which works across Herefordshire and Worcestershire, is looking for people to take on the role of a Relevant Persons Representative (RPR).  

As an RPR the volunteer would be visiting a person just once every 6-8 weeks for no more than 1 hour. Volunteering would be local to where the volunteer lives.  Volunteers as an RPR are safeguarding the rights of vulnerable people who don’t have the mental capacity to consent to care or treatment.

Onside’s Volunteer Manager, Claire Watkins, said   “Our volunteers give their time, their passion and enthusiasm, this role is very worthwhile and rewarding.”

 

Volunteers are ordinary people of all ages and backgrounds they just need to be good listeners and have some time to give.  We also have further opportunities with advocacy, mentoring, café and book shop volunteering available.

 

If you can picture yourself in the role of an Onside volunteer please call Claire Watkins - Volunteer Manager on 01905 27525 or email  claire.watkins@onside-advocacy.org.uk to find out more. This type of volunteering is flexible to fit with your life and circumstances. Free training (throughout the year) is provided and all expenses paid.

 

Note to Editors: Background on charity:

           Onside improves the lives of over 3000 vulnerable adults every year in Worcestershire and Herefordshire.

           We provide free services to support adults facing disadvantage through mental and physical ill health, learning disability and old age. Eg. Depression, autism, learning difficulties

           Onside employs over 50 people and has150 active volunteers

           Onside is a Worcestershire based charity established in 1993 stemming from a belief that everyone has the right to be a valued human being and to be treated in a just and fair manner.

TO REPORT FLOODING

NORTH WORCESTERSHIRE WATER MANAGEMENT are overseeing much of the local flooding, and while many complaints need to be directed to other departments / organisations we would still appreciate if you could alert us of any floods you become aware of so we can keep up-to-date records.

For any ordinary watercourse flooding, please contact NWWM on enquiries@nwwm.org.uk in the first instance, or for anything more urgent please call us on 01562 732 191.  We will need as much information as possible.

For any main river flooding (larger watercourses where the Environment Agency has an overseeing role) please call 0800 807 060.  If in doubt contact NWWM in the first instance.

For flooding on roads the first contact should be to Worcestershire highways as they are responsible for clearing drains, gullies and culverts under the road (note that road-side ditches may be the responsibility of the neighbouring land owner).  WCC Highways can be contacted through the following link http://www.worcestershire.gov.uk/cms/my-self-service/report-it/flooding.aspx or by calling 01905 765 765.

For any flooding which contains sewage, Severn Trent need to be contacted immediately, and a reference number should be obtained.  STW can be contacted on 0800 783 4444.  For issues with household drainage, Worcestershire Regulatory Services can be contacted on 01905 822 799.

NWWM website contains plenty of information on contact numbers, advice and website links which may be of use: http://www.wyreforestdc.gov.uk/cms/community-and-living/emergencies-and-crime-preventi/emergencies/emergencies---flooding/contacts.aspx
