Could you spend an hour or two every week helping an older person? The ShopAssist and Befriending schemes (part of Ilkley and District Good Neighbours) need more volunteers and will pay expenses. Our schemes enable older people to remain independent for longer and give volunteers the opportunity to meet new people, build rewarding friendships and give something back to the local community. Please phone 01943 603348, email info@goodneigboursilkley.org.uk or visit www.goodneighboursilkley.org.uk for further information on our volunteering opportunities.

Mind in Ilkley are looking for volunteers. If you can spare an hour or more please call in for a volunteer form.

ILKLEY COMMUNITY TRANSPORT

Would you like to help your local community and join the friendly team at Ilkley Community Transport? We are a registered charity based in Ilkley and are always looking for CAR DRIVERS to provide lifts primarily to medical appointments for residents in the Ilkley and Addingham area who find public transport difficult to access due to age, illness or disability. Volunteers use their own cars and claim expenses for fuel at a pre-agreed rate. Drivers must be over 21, and have held a full licence for at least 2 years.

Are you looking to have fun, make friends and give back to your community? Girlguiding groups throughout Wharfedale welcome new volunteers – as helpers or as leaders and on a regular or occasional basis. If you want to help girls and young women aged 5-25 develop confidence and have fun the volunteer at: https://enquiryv.girlguiding.org.uk/
