Outward Bound Group Volunteers

We run specific outward bound groups for people living with young onset dementia. We are looking for volunteers to support the one in the Craven area.

The group go out for a full day out in the local area, and enjoy fun, active, age-appropriate pursuits. We are looking for a volunteer or two volunteers who would be able to come out with the group, join in with the activity and support group members - we aim for an attitude of 'doing with' rather than 'doing for'.
