Some points: All potential Caseworkers

1. need to provide a reference as to their suitability to take on this sometimes demanding role.
2. need to be fit as sometimes people live in high flats with no lifts etc;  preferably capable of driving in the dark; Reasonably computer knowledgeable as reports etc are generated online; Able to travel up to 50Km distance from home;
3. Need to read the attached induction handbook “Introduction to volunteering”, including notes in yellow, complete the attached “now a little about you” and forward as indicated.
4. Need to do all the above personally, not through their Branch, although the Branch needs to be informed of their application.
