Jewish Care

Talks and Activities Volunteer (using Jewish Care’s activity resource library) - various locations across Jewish Care

Using Jewish Care’s incredible resource library to host activities and talks around specific topics. The Jewish Care Resource Library offers a wealth of materials related to all manner of subjects, providing everything that is needed to host interesting, interactive, engaging and stimulating activities, talks (from pre-prepared scripts), quizzes, word games, and poetry, all with full instructions and guidance. The team will work with you to find the best materials suited to the group you are volunteering with and will give full training (technology would be set up by staff). Topics include subjects such as: Life stories of well-known figures and personalities, Jewish History, British life through the decades, animals and wildlife, fashion, culture, London’s East End and many more. What you’ll be doing in this role: • Leading session/s each week, or as arranged with the team • Getting to know participants to learn the sort of topics from the resource library that would be enjoyed • Working to support the resource teams by leading these talks and activities for the enjoyment of our residents and members • Engaging participants in the activity and making it interesting and enjoyable • Greeting participants, talking to them about the session’s topic, and engaging in discussion about it • Each session is tailored and can vary dependant on the interests of those attending.
