BLUE Cross is looking for volunteers to help with the charity’s pet bereavement support service, which has been running for over 26 years.
The charity has seen a huge increase in demand for the UK-wide service, and as a result has launched a new web chat facility to help reach even more people who are in need of advice and support following the loss of a beloved pet.
Volunteers will be helping to provide support to people contacting the bereavement support service by phone, email and the new webchat services between 8.30am and 8.30pm every day.
The role will require volunteers to undertake a 10-week training course and to be able to commit to working a minimum of 15 hours per month.
If you would like to help you can find out more information at bluecross.org.uk/volunteer
