The Vacancy
We're VIVID! -We offer a vibrant, friendly, inclusive culture that supports, develops and attracts the best people!
We're looking for Activity Volunteers age 18+ to join our teams working with older people across Hampshire. You can volunteer as much or as little as you like and are able to commit to.
As a volunteer, you'll benefit from:
Previous experience of working with vulnerable people is desirable, as well as a good understanding of the needs of older people in general, but we will provide all of the training you need. If you're applying to volunteer somewhere further away from home, you will need your own form of transport, but travel expenses will be provided.
The Company
We're a leading provider of affordable homes and extensive support services in the south of England. We believe that everyone has the right to a safe and secure place to call home, and from the moment customers move into their VIVID home we're here to help with that and more.
Our customers have access to a wide range of tailored advice to sustain their tenancies and look after their wellbeing. We invest in our homes and communities for the long-term, and this means in the quality, safety and energy efficiency of existing homes and neighbourhoods, with a firm focus on improving services so they're easy to use and access by our customers.
We're addressing the shortage of affordable housing in the south, building the right type of homes to meet the needs of our local communities. We're the fifth largest developer of new homes amongst housing associations in England, having built over 1,500 last year.
This is summed up in our vision "More homes, bright futures".
Living VIVID
We're ranked 91 in the Top 100 Best Companies to Work For and ranked 12 amongst housing associations.
As a 'people' business, we work hard to create a high-performing and fun working environment. We invest in our people's development, whilst looking after their wellbeing with our award-winning initiatives.
