Community Ambassador (Bristol Caribbean Community)

Opportunity image

Are you from the Caribbean community and passionate about helping people learn about diabetes? Do you have strong links with your local community in Bristol? Become a Volunteer Community Ambassador to help improve the health and wellbeing of people in your area!

Community Ambassadors raise awareness of diabetes and Diabetes UK. You’ll do this by building links with your local community, and by organizing events. These could be stalls, talks, and presentations. You could join local healthy living days, community centres, health fairs, festivals and faith centres.

You’ll make a difference for people who aren’t getting the support they need. You’ll work with people in a specific community and place who have diabetes, or are at risk of diabetes. You’ll help people spot the signs, understand diabetes, and understand what help is available.

Note that for this role, volunteers must be able to speak, read and write English
