Volunteers with good communication and interpersonal skills are needed in South Gloucestershire.

They are required to offer support on community learning courses.

The free courses are available to people aged 19 or over who have few formal qualifications.

They are designed to help people develop their confidence and career prospects.

Taking place across South Gloucestershire, including in Thornbury and Yate, there are courses in everything from creative writing to how to use a computer.

Volunteers will support learners to complete their learning activities whilst developing independent learning skills.

They will work under the guidance of a tutor and a DBS check will be required.
