Summary

Volunteers with an interest in dance for health are needed to help support the delivery team in our specially designed classes for people living with MS.

Detailed description

What do Scottish Ballet volunteers do?

Our volunteers assist by setting up the space, meeting and greeting participants, preparing and serving refreshments at the social time, helping to provide practical support and partnering participants in dancing when required.


No previous experience is required and training is provided, however an interest in dance health is essential.


Where?

Classes take place at Perth Theatre, Mill Street. PH1 5HZ


When?

Our volunteers will be needed between 10.30am to 1.15pm from Tuesday 22 October to Tuesday 12 December (10 weeks) . You do not need to be able to attend every week.


Training

All our volunteers MUST have attended both an online and in-person training session before attending a class.


  • The online training is on Tuesday 8 October, 11am - 12.30pm.
  • The in-person training is on Tuesday 15 October, 11am - 12.30pm



People who have been to both sessions may be invited to volunteer at the classes which run on Tuesday mornings until 10 Dec.

About Scottish Ballet

Scottish Ballet Health is made up of pioneering multigenerational dance programmes that offer creative experiences to improve the health of those involved.
We lift themes and movements from our productions to inspire creativity, nurturing the dancer in everyone, creating space away from diagnoses and life’s challenges.

Central to SB Health is our dance health strand which includes three programmes for people living with neurological conditions: Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s and dementia.

Each class is created and delivered by an award-winning dance health team that is made up of full-time dance education professionals, who have become trained specialists within this area.
