Volunteer Needed to Help with a Yiddish Class – Mill Hill East
We are looking for a volunteer to help with a Yiddish class for tenants at our building in Mill Hill East. The aim is to bring tenants together to explore and enjoy the Yiddish language, including its words, phrases, expressions and rich cultural history. The sessions would provide an opportunity for tenants to share their knowledge, learn new things and reminisce about the language and its place in Jewish life and culture. The volunteer would help facilitate discussions, introduce interesting words and phrases, and encourage tenants to participate and share their own experiences and memories. You do not need to be fluent in Yiddish or have previous teaching experience. We are simply looking for someone who has an interest in the language and its history, enjoys chatting with others and would be happy to help create a fun, relaxed and engaging environment in which tenants can explore Yiddish together. Application process (application form, references etc.) and a DBS check will be required before volunteering can commence. JBD will apply for the DBS on the volunteer's behalf.
Not sure which role suits you or need a little friendly help? Please contact our volunteer broker at volunteerbroker@jvn.org.uk for London or Rebecca at manchester@jvn.org.uk for Manchester.

Charity
Jewish Blind & Disabled
Jewish Blind & Disabled is the only charity dedicated to enabling people from the age of 18 upwards, who have physical disabilities or impaired vision, to live independently with the dignity and choice that are so easy for others to take for granted.
One in five people in the UK have to face a diagnosis of disability at some point in their lives, with someone going blind every hour. Jewish Blind & Disabled’s mission is to restore their independence and hope for the future through our developments of state-of-the-art mobility with resident house managers on site and on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week in case of an emergency; giving tremendous peace of mind not just to the tenant but to their family too.
We provide specially adapted mobility apartments located in one of our seven supportive developments in London, Hertfordshire and Essex. Alongside this, we offer occupational therapist assessments and support to help people stay independent and safe in their own home and support groups that connect people living with disabilities and sight loss to each other.
As an independent charity that does not receive any government funding, Jewish Blind & Disabled is very grateful for the support of our volunteers.
