Forbes Hall Health Equipment Loaner Program (HELP): Volunteers Needed

Did You Know?

TICA provides a wide assortment of health equipment for islanders’ use. Everything from crutches to hold bards to wheelchairs are stored at Forbes Hall and lent out if needed. HELP is managed by the Forbes Hall Health Services Committee and headed up by chief HELP’er David Reay.

The equipment has been gathered over the years by the Thetis Island Volunteer Fire Department, the past Seniors’ Committee of TICA, and the Forbes Hall Health Services Group.

Can you help?

We are looking for two HELP’ers to work with David in loaning out the equipment and being on-site for returns and intakes of donated items.

What would the volunteer role look like?

Meet people at the hall, get them the appropriate piece of equipment for their needs and document the loan.

· Receive and process new donations.

· Document the return of loaned items and get them stored appropriately.

As this job would be shared by David and two other volunteers, the hours would be few, but you would be required to stay in contact with the HELP Group and attend to the program as needed.

Please contact either David Reay at davidreay@telus.net or Ann Dickie at info@forbeshall.ca

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Thanks

TICA Board
