Parent volunteers can make a difference in so many different ways. The provision of ongoing emotional and practical support for a parent with a learning disability should never be underestimated.
Many of our parents have experienced the difficult trauma of losing their children, and are at risk of being left to cope on their own. Having a volunteer could mean they are able to work through what has happened more easily, decreasing feelings of isolation and enabling them to access the support they need.
Below are the opportunities available for those wishing to volunteer with a parent with a learning disability.
