DAVID & RAY’S STORYDavid and Ray Clark’s son Gary has been a JCS volunteerfor a number of years and has been trying to persuade hisparents to come along to the Aviv Club. David and Rayagreed to give it a try and have now been attending theClub for a couple of months

David said: “I would highly recommend it, I love the choir– you can really give it your all! Ray enjoys the pamperingtreatments and all the staff and volunteers are so kind.”

Ray said: “We both enjoy the cup of tea and toast when wearrive – it is so welcoming – and I have met people Ihadn’t seen for years.”

Gary said: “Through my volunteering for Jewish CareScotland I could see that the club would be a great benefitfor mum & dad and I am so glad they agreed to give it atry. Dad is really a full time carer for mum so coming alongto the club gives him some respite, which is soimportant.”

NORMA’S STORYNorma Woolfson has been attending Jewish Care Scotlandclubs for a number of years now and thoroughly enjoys thecompany and social activities.

Norma didn’t feel safe in her old flat. She says: “The areahad become quite run down with furniture left on thelanding, washing hanging over the banisters, too manypeople in the flats and noisy groups of peoplecongregating outside at night”

JCS staff suggested thinking about moving, but Normawas initially worried about the cost and the actual moveitself – how on earth would she manage on her own? Ann,her Jewish Care Scotland Support Worker, assured her thatshe would help her and Norma agreed to go ahead.

Norma says: “Ann & Angela were a marvellous help to me,I couldn’t have done it without them – they spent thewhole weekend clearing my old flat and Ann even hung myclothes in the wardrobe in the new flat and put everythingaway ready for me just to move in. I feel much safer nowand I am in a lovely area, very handy for Jewish CareScotland!”

STANLEY’S STORY

Stanley Cohen turned to Jewish Care Scotland for supportwhen he was moving from the home he had lived in forover 70 years. With no family to help him, JCS staff wereable to support Stanley during this stressful time, helpinghim to clear out his old flat and with all the paperworkassociated with moving house.

Stanley says: “I am so grateful to Jewish Care Scotland fortheir support over the years, they have been there everystep of the way. Angela, my Support Worker, is a wonderfulperson who I see once a week and we go out for lunch. Sheis always chatty and cheery and willing to help me with anydifficulties I might have. I also look forward to my Mealson Wheels twice a week, which are always delicious!”

Volunteering 6

Social Care Agency Volunteers 2014-2015

SOCIAL CARE AGENCY - THE IMPACT OF VOLUNTEERINGOver 110 dedicated volunteers play a vital role in thecharity and enable Jewish Care Scotland to provideexcellent care throughout the organisation. Athorough recruitment process ensures that the skillsand abilities of the volunteers are matched to theneeds of the clients and the organisation. Regularmeetings are held with all groups to ensurevolunteers are informed and engaged with JewishCare Scotland.

• Volunteers work as receptionists at The WaltonCommunity Care Centre, ensuring a warmwelcome to our visitors and all who use ourservices.

• Many volunteers work in the clubs interactingwith clients and accompanying them on outings.Volunteers run arts & crafts classes, discussiongroups, singing groups, keep fit, bridge, bowling

and many other activities which are stimulatingand enjoyable for our clients.

• Over 40 volunteers carry out amazing andinspirational work on an outreach basis, visitingpeople in their own homes, taking them out forcoffee or lunch, helping to reduce social isolationin many cases. They also accompany them onsocial outings such as exhibitions and concerts,which they might otherwise be unable to attend. If a client is unable to leave their home, thevolunteer provides company and stimulation forth0se individuals who might otherwise have noother visitors. For many of our elderly clientswhose family live abroad, or who perhaps do nothave any family at all, the companionshipprovided by the outreach volunteers is invaluable.

• There are volunteers who carry out one-offoutreach work. For example, these volunteerssupport clients with personal tasks such asattending hospital, doctor or dental appointmentsetc. Many clients rely on this service as they haveno-one else to help them and would otherwisestruggle to make the appointments.

• A group of volunteers carry out work on anoutreach basis in Burnfield and Westacres CareHomes. They visit residents who may have nofamily or any other visitors. Some volunteers meetwith groups of residents within the homes andengage clients in discussions and reminiscence.This type of reminiscence work is a lovely pasttime for residents who often have memoryproblems with recent events but remember “thegood old days”.

• Our Keep in Touch service allows clientsthroughout Scotland who do not need social careinput to keep up to date with the community bytelephone on a weekly basis.

• The Bakers Group keep the clubs supplied withdelicious kosher home baking, giving clubmembers a daily treat.

• The Bus Escort Group work on a rota basishelping those who attend the various clubs to geton and off the bus and escort them into their ownhome.
