Education Volunteer

PSP & CBD are rare and little known. One of our aims is to make education and training available to as many health and social care professionals as possible, many of whom may not have come across PSP or CBD before. They may have little knowledge or understanding of the varying needs and effects involved. This role will help health and social care professionals to understand key information about the impact of living with PSP & CBD and thereby improve their practice.

We also aim to raise awareness in local communities by offering informative talks to interested groups.

• Completing all associated admin as required
• Committing to the delivery of a number of sessions to be agreed
• Completing feedback reports and keeping accurate records
• Attend regular training and development events
• A driving licence and access to a car is desirable

We will provide training and resources to enable you to plan and deliver free training sessions on PSP, CBD and the services offered by PSPA. We offer a comprehensive learning package that can be competed in your own time and covers all aspects of the role. A visit to our offices in Milton Keynes as a final training day completes the process.
