The posting

About The Role

If you enjoy chatting on the phone and listening to others, then we’d love to hear from you!

Our Companion Call Volunteers help to reduce the loneliness often experienced by people affected by dementia. Through their contact and conversations, people affected by dementia can feel less socially isolated and better connected.

You’ll telephone people living with dementia or their carers, on a regular basis (usually weekly), and chat with them about the things they are interested in and want to talk about. You’ll chat with the same people (ideally at least two) each time and provide brief feedback on your calls via an online form. You’ll not be providing advice or guidance in this role and you don’t need to have knowledge of dementia; it’s all about simply having an easy social conversation with someone.

  • You are confident in using the telephone and are happy to work independently
  • You have good verbal communication skills, are a good listener and enjoy talking to people
  • You have basic IT skills and have easy access to the internet
  • You are patient, flexible and able to commit to the schedule of calls agreed
  • You are over the age of 18

This role will be subject to a satisfactory Basic Criminal Records Check from either the Disclosure and Barring Service (England & Wales), Disclosure Scotland Check (Scotland) or AccessNI (Northern Ireland).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
