Add to that a good understanding of dementia and an appreciation of the value of volunteers, and you will be perfectly placed to make your mark as part of their forward-thinking team.

If you have the qualities they're looking for, and are passionate about improving the quality of services and improving the quality of life for people with dementia they can promise you excellent career development, a highly supportive environment and the opportunity to put your personal and professional stamp on their vital care services.
