Thank you for your interest in becoming a volunteer for NorDDiS. We would be delighted to welcome you to our friendly team.
To apply please fill out the Application Form below. Alternatively, do call at the Gillingham shop/telephone 01747 821010 and a volunteer’s pack will be given/sent to you. Full training is available.
The Application Form needs to include the names and addresses of two referees. They should be people who have known you for 5 years who are not relatives. It may be necessary for us to apply for a DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check.
Travel from your home to NorDDiS, and other expenses can be considered for those with financial difficulties by discussion with the shop manager. If agreed they can be claimed monthly by completing an expenses form.
The shop contains a toilet with facilities for the disabled. Other accommodations can be considered and made as necessary.
It is our policy to ensure that at least one able-bodied volunteer is on duty in the shop to assist a disabled volunteer. Normally duties last for three hours, morning or afternoon, once a week, but sometimes you may be asked if you can cover another volunteer’s absence. If you can offer more hours, we would be delighted.
If you have any questions, or there are any points you would like clarified, please telephone or call in the shop.
