We need:

  • Cycling buddies
  • Archery spotters
  • Gym and swim buddies

to support our members to take part in fitness activities on an equal basis.

This role is an excellent opportunity for people considering a career in sports and physical activities to get practical experience of working with disabled people.

Time commitment:  From two hours per week, depending on the activities you help with.

Day and times: Weekdays

Location: Leisure centres and parks in Sandwell

Volunteers will receive sighted guide visual impairment awareness training and safeguarding training.
