Volunteer With Us
One hour a week changes an outcome. Tell us a little about yourself and we will find the right role for you.
Choose what suits your week
You do not need to be a teacher or have your own life figured out. You need to be reliable and willing to listen.
Mentor
One hour a week, term-time, for a school year. Full training and safeguarding clearance provided, with a named coordinator supporting you throughout.
Time: 1 hour weekly, 12 months
Service Day Helper
Join a monthly community service day, fundraising drive or neighbourhood project. No training needed, families welcome, lunch provided.
Time: 1 day a month
Skills & Pro Bono
Teach a workshop in your field, or offer legal, design, tech or finance expertise on a project rather than a year.
Time: Project by project
Tell us about you
We keep this short on purpose. A coordinator will be in touch within two working days to arrange a friendly conversation.
Four steps, and we do most of them with you
From your form to your first session usually takes under three weeks.
We read your form
A coordinator reviews it and replies within two working days.
A friendly chat
Twenty minutes, in person or on the phone, to talk through the role and your questions.
Training and checks
Our volunteer training takes one evening. Background checks run in parallel and we cover the cost.
You start
You are matched with a young person or a team, and paired with an experienced volunteer.
Rather support us another way?
Funding a place or opening a door at your workplace helps just as much.
