We need more people to train in hand and arm massage

[Admin]

We need more members to train  for hand and arm massage.  A worthwhile service offering a light massage to the hands and lower arm to elderly women usually in residential homes.  For most of these elderly women, often with dementia, this is the first physical contact they have had from anyone in many years.  Those that do this say it is such a satisfying rota and the volunteer gets so much from it too. Those interested will be trained by the League, DBS checked  and we will then give you a special bag with oil and other useful items.

We currently have three rotas waiting for volunteers in this service.

• We have a need for a hand and arm volunteer  in a Shul in Southgate on Tuesday 30^th July.
• Jewish Care would like to offer hand and arm massage to their 10 elderly residents attending  a tea party  at a North London home on Tuesday 13^th August from 14.30 to 16.30.
• We also need  a few people to offer this service to residents at Lady Sarah Cohen in Friern Barnet.

Contact Tania on 020 7242 8300 option 2 or email tania@theljw.org to find out more.
