New role for African volunteers at George House Trust
posted: 16/12/2010
George House Trust is launching an exciting new peer support service for people living with HIV from African communities. The project is funded by the Volunteering Fund and aims to reduce the stigma and isolation that many people living with HIV from African communities experience. Trained volunteers will offer peer support in a range of settings through sharing their own experiences of living with HIV, providing basic information about HIV and offering emotional support.
We are currently recruiting volunteers for the project and would like to encourage HIV positive people from African communities to apply.
The deadline for applications is Friday 14th January 2011 and we will be delivering our first Peer Support Volunteer Training Course on the 21st, 24th and 26th January 2011.
If you would like to talk about getting involved as a volunteer, please speak to Laura on 0161 274 5653 or email: volunteering@ght.org.uk
