1.1 Gloucestershire County Council (we/the council) is open to approaches from people who wish to volunteer within Adult Social Care facilities/services in their local community.
1.2 Opportunities to volunteer will:
- not necessarily be available in all services or all areas of Gloucestershire
- not be available as a work placement or as work experience
- not be available within any Adult Social Care statutory service
1.3 Volunteers will have their own distinct status within Adult Social Care and will not be used as substitutes for paid staff.
1.4 The needs, rights and safety of people who use our services will be the paramount consideration when deciding whether or not to involve volunteers in any Adult Social Care service.
